Why so many ARC Ref 6SE preamps up for sale?


Seems like the most commonly listed preamp; for sale these days is the ARC Ref 6SE.  Any idea why so many folks are selling theirs?  Is a “Mk. II” version imminent?  Is ARC in some kind of difficulty?  Just wondering.

Over the past two months there were like 7 Ref 6es listed internationally and none in the US. What the hell are you even talking about? You’ve apparently been here about 23 years and started six threads, and THIS is where you wanna go???  What’s your agenda here?

According to HiFi Shark, there are 4 Ref6SE for sale right now on US Audio Mart

There have been constraints on getting tubes.  I personally had issues about a year ago getting tubes for my REF6SE and REF160S.  That is the only reason I could think of.

I see many of those WhySoManys posted here on different brands and models, but overall it' safe to assume that it can happen to any make or model of the audio component at any time of the day or night.
