| can it bee that audio research vsi 75 has lack of open highs/mid ? thanks. what are those teflon caps? sorry but my english is not perfect. what do you mean by: "Drive you nuts in speaker crossovers, but they sure sound good after a 24/7/14 face to face (2 whole weeks.)" that i should leave the amp working consta... | |
| Audio Research I/50 do you sure that after changing to a new tubes there is no an additional break in? | |
| Audio Research I/50 one of the weird things is that arc saying that the amp will work at it's best after 600 hours of using it. on the other hand that average tubes life is 2000 h. so it means that 30% percent of tubes life you don't get the best potential. btw, the ... | |
| Audio Research I/50 @ Transience how to your opinion is the Linear Tube Audio soundwise compare to an arc around this price point ? and what is the reason for this: "be more agreeable to the younger listeners" | |
| Audio Research I/50 i hope that sometime soon there will be a comprehensive review, in a serious magazine/site about it's sound quality | |
| Audio Research I/50 it's really inconvenient but at least there is an option to bias. a friend of mine, a very experienced technician with tube amps said that there is also a disadvantage in auto bias. sometimes you cant use other brand or type of tubes when it's au... | |
| Audio Research I/50 i also will not buy an amp that can't control the bias , auto or manually, but i think that this subject still need to be checked. i don't think you'll have to send it for biasing. think that the meant is when you replace the tubes, let say after... | |
| Audio Research I/50 although its looks like there is an issue with the bias adjusting, i still think that it’s something to check with ARC i don't think i'll buy an tube amp without this option | |
| Audio Research I/50 they say about a technician only when changing tubes. i agree that it strange that they didn’t mentioned anything about the bias adjustment on the manual. if it’s no auto or user adjustable it is really bad news. on the other hand i believe that ... | |
| Audio Research I/50 you have it here , and also found it on other site at the time. "The i50 also uses an auto-bias configuration, so you will not have to worry about that aspect of vacuum tube operation either." but of course its not official and things must to be c... | |
| Audio Research I/50 i'm planning to ask the distributor here to check this subject with ARC | |
| Audio Research I/50 the question is why if it has automatic bias , you still have to bias it "by a trained technician to ensure proper operating values." something is contradicting here ? | |
| Audio Research I/50 found this: "Like all modern amplifiers from Audio Research, this one also has automatic bias adjustment, which makes living with a valve amplifier much easier". but still, i would like to have an option to check and bias it by myself from time ... | |
| Audio Research I/50 i read somewhere that it has an automatic bias. its a bit hard to believe that you cant make a bias. any way i asked a friend of mine, a experience technician in those amps, to check this subject. i agree that its a bit bother, since from my exper... | |
| Audio Research I/50 what do you mean by "the more contemporary i/50 styling" ? |
