| For ARC lovers, Problems? sigh! spell check. Your due diligence.enjoy | |
| For ARC lovers, Problems? you did you due diligence. You actually were able to compare in your system three pretty nice pre-amps. That is great. You were hearing only the swapped component in the same system, in the same room. It doesn't get better than that.I'm glad y... | |
