Hi there....Send an email to service@audioresearch.com. The parts guy is Kal. They do have the bulbs. I would order a few at a time. You may also wish to consider their tube dampers which work great, and are reusable. I own an ARC SP-3C and as Mabonn says, the update to SP-3C is an excellent idea and transforms that preamp! The old twist lock power supply caps are miserable as are the zener string voltage regulators. Before his passing, Bill Johnson designed a new FET regulated power supply for that preamp. It's truly wonderful.
Audio Research SP-3A-1 part
I'm so sure this has come up before, but I can't find it.
Do any of you know where I can get a replacement green power on lamp for this unit? I tried calling ARC, and it went to a voicemail that said they'd call back. Well, I tried several times - no call back....
Also, mine is the Gold/Black version(lovely!) and like so many others I've seen, the gold on the face of the volume knob insert is scratched. I did determine that this is just a transparent "gold" toned finish on top of a normal spun aluminum disc.. I found a gold toned lacquer that can come close to matching, but not quite. That was Nicholas #2105 used for brass musical instruments BTW. Anyone else have any ideas?
