audio research ref 1/ ls-25 tube question newbie


how critical is "exact" tube matching in the audio research ref 1/ ls-25 pre amps ?

the ref 1 takes 8-6922's, and the ls-25 take 6-6922's... do they have to be dead spot on matched ?

No, not at all, any 6922 will work. Having said that; high end audio is all about incremental improvements. The closer they are matched the better the gear sounds.
