I was wondering if anyone knows if turning off the display screen on the Audio Research Ref 3 while listening to music will help increase better sonics rather than leaving it "on" (showing volume setting etc...) Thanks in advance.
That is what I thought also. I think its use is only if you like your room pitch black. I notice no sound difference. I gotta say I like Jim's response however :)
I cannot tell the difference with the Ref 3 display on or off, but I can quite easily and repeatedly hear the difference when the 210 mono's displays are on versus off. The sound is two dimensional and not as immediate/dynamic with the displays on.
From the beginning my REF 3 display makes an audible noise, to get it silent I have to go dark.But I notice no sound difference. Greetings from the Netherlands Hans
