My dad has the ARC LS16, checked out the LS26 then bought the Ref 3 wich will be installed in a week, the 26 is no slouch but he splurged for the ref 3.
Hi Missioncoonery

What pre are you using at the moment?

I bought the LS26 about a month ago. It replaced my Krell KRC-HR. I still cant believe how much better the ARC is. It beats the Krell in every possible aspect. I am now considering a change to a tube power amp.

I would thoroughly recommend this preamp
Cheers
