| My Audio Research experience thazeldean, you just lost all creditability. Now I think ARC, the dealer, or whoever probably kept your tubes because your a whiner. | |

| My Audio Research experience You are correct knghifi, I have had no contact with them. So if you are saying they are ok I do listen to the voice of experience. Again, I don't know about other companies policies, but to me having to buy tubes from them to retain your warrant... | |
| My Audio Research experience knghifi, this thread is irrelevant to you. But to someone that may have thought of buying a new ARC amp, the fact that the company is so rigid that you have to buy tubes from them for a warranty repair is a non starter. Especially since it is we... | |
| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio It sounds like Mr. Deal attended the Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde academy of audio salesmanship. | |
| My Audio Research experience jmcgrogan2, your experience certainly trumps my conjecture. I vaguely remember reading a few post where people mentioned that when their ARC blew a tube they sometimes take out resistors. Maybe the fuse doesn't blow first? This may have been jus... | |

| Synergistic Red Fuse ... You know, now that I am thinking about it, there are a lot of at least as bright as the average lightbulb people here. It would be something if we had an actual working scientist in a lab among us who could add a real analysis of what the physica... | |

| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Maybe an electron microscope would help? | |
| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio Well said all the way around timlub. Was also wondering if op received a refund or the speakers were refinished? | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ A very good suggestion. However, I believe in another thread someone posted links to pictures of SR black receptacles that were identical visually to those sold at Lowes, but the SRs were treated with 2,000,000 volts and a graphene coating. ... |
