Audio research 100.2 any good ?????


I am thinking of buying a audio research 100.2 amp . I am driving monitor audio silver 8 speakers and want a nice warm sound . Is the audio research a good amp @ only 100 watts per channel , or should i step up to a parasound a21 ?

I made the recommendation for the Belles on the Thread that I posted here for Nesto719 to review.  I agree,  Belles is huge bang for the buck pieces.  The Aria is 75 watts and the Coda that I posted above is over 300,  both are excellent pieces. 
WOW! ARC will no longer repair them!

I would pass on this one!

Does ARC still repair the D240, D400, D300????

They were good in their time.
The early transistor ARC amps were dogs.....I wouldn't touch it.  Grainy, no depth, no air, no good.  The one you're speaking of may be different, but the one I know was not a good amp.
ARC SS amps from early 80's were dogs, but not the SS ones from the 90's.

I never cared ARC SS digital switching (DS) amps though.
