Well, if the 40th Anniversary is THE LAST PREAMP, you'll have no need for the 50th Anniversary model.
For $25K.....yes, I can wait.

It was just a chuckle for me because after 35 years in this hobby, I know that there is no such thing as the LAST one of ANYTHING.......unless you are lying or dying. Anyone who thinks they are buying their last preamp is lying to themselves or planning on dying soon.

John,
you`re right. This was somehow also an ironic statement from my side. It is the same with someone telling you he has reached Audio Heaven and he wll buy no more gear at all.
So we will watch together who is next from the two of us!?
all the best

Has any one out there audition the ARC 40th Anniversary preamp ? How good is it compare to the Wavac top end pre amp ?
I just heard one in an all ARC, Wilson Sasha system at the local dealer, and I have to admit it the presentation was spectacular. Great articulation in the bass, no smearing of any frequency that I could hear, just a very musically engaging performance. If I only had the bank.
