Rouge Audio RP-7

Did you mean Rogue Audio or Rouge Audio?

Here's a link to Rouge Audio.

The RH-5 and RP-5 seem like great value. I think I looked over the RH-5 because I don’t use headphones. I actually may have lucked out. There may be a dealer within 30 miles of me that sell both Rogue and Audio Research. Going to call on Tuesday. @dekay I meant Rogue. I think rouge popped up becaue I live close to a river named Rouge and my phone trys to guess what I’m saying. I tried to edit it but the forum wouldn’t let me. :)

I just assumed the sound signature of the rp5 and rp7 would be extremely similar just your paying for balanced connections.  

I wish there was a audio business that lent audio gear the same way home depot rents tools.

I was kidding you, but this guy does have some great/informational vids (and his rouge usage reminds me of my Scotts Irish Grandma Nellie in her latter years).

@aberyclark The ARC Ref 6SE has a greater sense of depth and layering and can drive amps much more powerfully. The SE upgrade also brings a stunning new level of clarity that I’d never heard before. The BHK gives only a hint at the ARCs presentation due to it’s tube front end. I believe the SS output stage holds it back ultimately and it sounds flat in comparison, more like the Pass XP-22.
