Thoughts on Audio Research D70


I recently saw a very well priced D70. If I remember back in 80's these were highly thought of. Having no chance to hear, what do they compare with today or do they?

In the mid 80s, I used to put the D-70 on Quad 63s (with custom stands) for my clients.

Sometimes used Entec subs, sometimes not.

To this day, some of the most lifelike and stunningly involving music reproduction I was ever privileged to hear (within its dynamic envelope, of course).

I suppose the D70 was colored to some extent, but, IMO, it remains one of the most listenable amps ARC ever made.

And I go back with ARC to be early 70s, and worked there from '76-'77.
