Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? Just for kicks... Check out Luxman integrated and control amplifiers. They have well designed Loudness circuits. | |
Problem with Ref 5SE So... Just an observation. All of my ARC amplifiers over the years have had metal tops. My VT200 had 8 matched-pairs of 6550’s. And, a small pile of 6922’s, as well. It made a great space heater in the winter. ;-) | |
Problem with Ref 5SE So... For what it is worth... I have had no heat problems with either my Ref 5 (metal top) or Ref 5se (plastic top). Even had both in a media cabinet at one point, with only about 12” of head room.Just sayin’. | |
Problem with Ref 5SE I have a Ref 5se and had a Ref 5. Both were dead silent into multiple amps. Speakers: Martin Logan Summit x and B&W Signature 30’s. Both very revealing.Stupid questions: Are you using the CD input and balanced interconnects? Have you tri... | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! To clarify my earlier post, test the preamp without a load. No input cables attached. No output cables attached. See if the sparking stops.If not, steal a 6922 from the VT100. It has 8. Swap it in for the sparking LS15 tube. See if it fixes ... | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! So... Just a polite correction. The jumpers do not go in the XLR socket. The receptor is separate and apart. See the manual. | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! Sorry.i did scan them and apparently did a bad job. | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! The balanced input impedance is 200K. SE is 100K. Big difference. IMHO. Check that first.Do you have a multi-meter with spring-loaded hook clips? If so, check the amp bias to make you have power.As to the LS15, disconnect it from the amp (pow... | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! You can download the VT100 manuals on the Audio Research site. The manual shows where the jumpers are. | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! On the rear of the VT100 mki there is a place for inserting jumpers to change the inputs from balanced to SE. Was the seller using balanced or SE Interconnects? | |
Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! Are the VT100 SE jumpers in or out? FYI. I have had a VT100 mkiii and LS25 for years. And, I own the Luxman DA-06. Output is twice + that of your Sony.May be able to help. | |
Recommendation for higher power tube amp So...I may have what you need. I have an ARC VT100 mkiii, an ARC VT200 and a pair of ARC VTM200’s. All are recently retubed and in 9/10 condition. I am the original owner of the VTM200’s. The other 2 were demos.What I like about these amps is t... |
