| Cable upgrades James…wait for the Cardas to come back. See how you like them and go from there. I’ll be 100% honest - I am not a fan of benchmark sound. It’s not bad by any means. It just never draws me in. I always think I’m missing a tube component somewhere i... | |

| Anyone heard the new ARC LS28 SE? Cool. ARC tubed preamp with a nice SS amp is an awesome combo. I had the Ref6 in my system for almost a month and enjoyed it immensely paired with Pass X260.8 monos. Big, natural and dynamic. The 28SE should not be too far behind. | |

| Purchase on Audiogon arrived not as described Escalate it to supervisors and above. That’s the only way you can get anything moving at this point. | |
| Anyone heard the new ARC LS28 SE? The preamplifier will need about 250-300hrs. At 100hrs it isn’t fully cooked yet. Also, in my experience, the ARC preamps sound their best with XLR cables. |
