I’m going to try my Vandersteen with those 3 amps, not sure about the pre amp that will be used in the test yet. 1 ARC Ref75 SE (after passing mechanically check) 2 Ayre VX-5 twenty 3 Aesthetix Mimas
I will let you know as soon as I heard and picked a winner. until then, anyone who heard few of them and can compare would be happy to hear it here. tyvm |
I own that amp. Agree with others; there shouldn’t be a buzz/hum. I’ve had issues with other ARC amps, and it was miserable. (Brand new 160S that had to get a new PCB after a few months, which took several months). FWIW, I also ran it with Treo CTs for a few months. To each his own, YMMV, and all that, but I did not think the REF 75 was enough for those speakers. They sounded dramatically better — liberated — with the 160S. Until it broke. |
I wish I could. I’m not from the US and I’m limited. talked to the owner of the Ref75 se he connected it for 5 hours in seperate place and he said there was 0 noise after 4-5 hours of running. anyway im taking it for a verfied ARC mechanic to check it out. then im gonna do a sound test compare to the VX-5 twenty and choose 1 :D |
