| Solid state amp to replace my Audio Research Ref 150 amp dbarger151 posts05-22-2016 8:39amYou won't find a solid state amp that is as good as your Ref 150.

| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Thank you all again. I will try to listen to the IQ gear this weekend and see how it compares both in price and sound with the Sigma and the Rowland. I am booked to listen on Saturday morning. Not with the Wilson's but with speakers at the shop.... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC From all the indications, real time bias dramatically improves SQ. The owner running 200IQ in mono configurations had Phi 200s. Bottom line is how much do you want to spend? | |

| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche, 170IQ and 200IQ are VAC latest amps. From what I was told, 1st lot of 200IQ has already been sold. All I'm saying is used prices for Phi200 will drop so keep in mind when negotiating.Kevin Hayes introduces 170IQ and 200IQ at CES200IQ... | |
