Need to learn about Audio Research
Still exploring amps and preamps to go with my Magnepan 3.7i.
I've always heard about Audio Research being a great match, but I'm not familiar with the brand at all.
I'll need to shop the used market since the new gear is way out of my price range.
I am looking for a high power (100wpc +) amp and a preamp that has remote control. I'd like the preamp to be tube, and the amp could be either solid state or tube.
I don't know at what point in the model lineup remote control was added, but it appears most of the older gear did not have a remote.
Any AR experts here?
Good decision. There are many maggie owners who have had a tube amp on the tweet/mids and a solid state on the bass panels but you don’t have that biamping option with the 3.7’s, not without much more extensive modification at least.
That should work out, let us know how that compares to the Hegel. What would the pre be with it though? |
Check on hifishark search the unit, click on sold/expired and that will tell you the prices others have listed it for. The fellow from this ad likes to look at his Jeff Rowland gear so much he had to have it in the background in every picture https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649765369-extremely-rare-infinity-fet-preamp/ |
