| Audio Research Ref 3 Opinions I bet there are more "rolling updates" with other brands as well, we just don't know it! | |

| Audio Research LS-22 or LS-16 Which is Best My experience with the LS 16 is very good, that is after I replaced the tubes........ Kinda wish I never got rid of it.... Never heard the 22, so can't comment on it. | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 "Magnepanmike, can you give a little more insight as to why you feel the MK2 is SS sounding? An example of the system/music and time spent with it perhaps?"I was using a LS 16 mk1 for 2 years when I purchased a LS25 mk2. I had the both units in my... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Actually Tvad....... I couldn't disagree with you more. The MK2 uses 6h30's which are very fast sounding tube. Maybe you are thinking of a MK1? 6922's that are used in the MK1 are somewhat syrupy. 6h30's are fast, dynamic and very crisp and clean.... | |

| Need help with tube linestage-SF vs ARC vs Others The LS 16 mk 1 (not mk 2) has lots of bloom. It is a very good sounding piece.... The mk 2's use 6h30 tubes that are faster, cleaner, and more dynamic, but do not have nearly the bloom the mk 1's using 6922 tubes..... If you are looking for bloom,... | |
| Help my speakers are farting,,,, Ask your girl friend to fart above 200 hz, so you can tell where the sound (or smell) is coming from! :)(I bet you didn't think you would be getting all of this fun stuff when you wrote your post, did ya!) | |
| ARC Reference 2 MkII Preamp white noise levels I agree with Reb1208. My Ref2 mk1 also has white noise and will go away when you mute the pre. It is also not variable through the volume control, as the original poster suggests.. I called Leonard at ARC and he said it is the power tube that is u... | |
