When I first read that they (ARC) had gone into receivership, my knee jerk reaction was to sell my LS28SE and gather whatever it would bring and buy something else. Then I realized that I loved the sound of this piece and it works just fine, why jump out of a perfectly good plane as the saying goes. Surely if they don’t bounce back with new owners, there will always be repair shops. And that would only matter if it broke. Although I have not been a big ARC customer, my experience has been great, as if I were a factory-hold name, when it came to service. And a shout out to to Mr Dave Gordon mentioned above, he has been a jewel to work with through the years. But I wanted a picture of him as a memento, then I found one, in the dictionary of all places, under Perfect Gentleman.
If Mr Gordon says they will have new owners, I will take that to the bank. This company is too damned good to go anywhere but forward.
