Besides pride of ownership and resale value, I've found that the small manufacturers of tube equipment have better sound for way less money than the well known brands.
Audio Research REF 6 to REF 6SE upgrade.
UPDATE””””””””” I just got off the phone with Audio Research about the REF 6 to 6SE upgrade and I was told that the price of the upgrade went up from last year from $3500 to $5000. I was pretty shocked. Also he said that it will not have to be done by the service dept as they have a guy who strictly does Ref 6 upgrades. as all parts are in stock and it will only take 14 days turn around time.

I wish you lived near me in Central NC. I have 2 Pass Camp Amp Kits unboxed, waiting to be built. Unfortunately, I haven't built a kit since the '70's, and at 59 and a half years old I have mild Parkinson-like trembles. I'm afraid to try soldering because I don't want to screw it up. I can't find anyone local to help out. I'd love to see the gear you build. |
@invalid Well I would think resale value means a lot. |
@brunomarcs 5k for Ref 6 |
