Audio Research I/50

@rsfphil i had linked to a preview above that, at the time, said something along the lines of “like all Audio Research’s recent offerings, the I/50 will have auto bias…”. Curiously, the article has been changed and no longer references that. Can’t find it anywhere else either. Huh. 

Ah - maybe it was there (lbtech link) all along and I missed it the second time through somehow. Thanks @stone1 

No meters, I don’t believe. 

This is as good as I could find, in addition to the pics on Audio Research’s Instagram: https://www.carltonaudiovisual.com.au/audio-research-i50-integrated-amplifier.html
It’s not much. 

I’ve no idea, but the $9K referenced in the ARC link I posted is from an Australian site, and maybe therefore AUD? If so, AU$9K ~ US $6600. Guess we’ll know more eventually. 

I see now the Aussie link I posted above has been disabled - odd. 
Hopefully ok to link to other audio forums - found this brief discussion: https://www.audioaficionado.org/showthread.php?t=49413

Thanks for sharing! I’m partial to the black.  I’m curious to hear one and see some detailed reviews. Price point could be ok IMO if the sound holds to traditional ARC standards, I think, but part of me wonders if it’s a little too… gimmicky? The color options remind me a bit of the less expensive Apple IPhones. 
I’ve no doubt ARC knows the market better than I do!

I haven’t seen anything recently on this amp, but per this link, it does have auto-bias.

Curious to hear reviews here and to learn what’s next for ARC.
