Audio Research Refernce 75se

I would bet money it isnt either loose screws or delam, I would bet its power related. Is it that system, that plug, that home, that transformer on the pole, that region of your town? Its worth having it checked out but the deal you describe in the other thread isnt so amazing that you should take a flyer on this amp. What preamp will you be utilizing if you buy the ref75se?

Good news i would be taking it to a mechanic to check it out.

imlooking towards the ARC ls27 atm . what do u think for this combo? @ghasley 

@mike30 the LS27 is a fine preamp. The se versions are exceptional as well. The ref series, end game. If you have to make a financial compromise, buy the best preamp you can afford. It will make every amp better…but the inverse isnt always true. Hanging an amazing amp off of an average preamp doesnt necessarily yield the superior results…

good luck. The 75se can be end game, it is already a classic and it is a really nice amp across a broad spectrum of speakers.

@ghasley

well if the deal won’t be happenning.

im probably getting the Ayre VX-5 Twenty with Preamp KX-5 Twenty.

 BTW I didn't went any where over Head with the set I heard today .. Ididnt felt any wow

speakers were Sonus Faber Amati

Pick your speakers, then your electronics…
