I read the Stereophile review of the Ref75 and they mentioned the appearance with the meters was similar to the D79. If the Ref75 will not drive magnepans, however, that must be the only similarity between the 2 amps. I say that because I have a D79 and it drove my MG1.6's better than anything I ever had, and at high levels. At the time it was much better than the Bryston and McCormack Solid State gear I had in terms of perceived power and tonal quality. Looks like the Ref75 is a step down, however, which is to be expected because it is about 50 lb compared to the D79 which is about 100 lb.
Any experience with Arc ref75 driving magnepans
Thinking about buying a Arc ref 75 to go with my ls27. I have 1.7 right now and will upgrade to the 3.7s in the future..I listen mostly to jazz along with some classical and classic rock. Once in awhile I turn up the volume...I'm reaching out to you for your input...Thanks
