| The Audio Research Reference 10 is here $30k .Thanks for the kind words Pops. I'm certainly content with my current preamp, but the curiosity of the Ref5 SE and the Ref Anniversary is driving me nuts! . | |
| The Audio Research Reference 10 is here $30k .I cannot afford to buy the Reference products new, but when they come up for sale on the used market several years later they are good buys. Frome $25k new, the Ref Anniversary is now down to $14k on the used market. In a couple of years, I will ... | |
| The Audio Research Reference 10 is here $30k .Larry....OUCH!!I'll have to admit, I love Audio Research preamps & cd players. My experience outside of AR is extremely limited, and I really haven't been interested in looking elsewhere. Maybe I should broaden my horizons.. | |
| The Audio Research Reference 10 is here $30k .Electroslacker, you're killing me! LOL!. | |
| The Audio Research Reference 10 is here $30k .There should be some really sweet deals coming up this year on pre-owned Ref Anniversary models. I'm starting to save my scratch right now for one.. | |

| Is the ''entry level'' DAC becoming extinct ? .Ghasley, no offense taken. I just had to chuckle at myself at how I have been so cloistered with Audio Research gear.

| The Audio Research Reference 10 is here $30k .My guess is the Reference 6, 7, 8, and 9 will show up as single chassis preamps. The dual chassis preamps will be numbered 10 and up. . | |
| Is the ''entry level'' DAC becoming extinct ? .Ouch! Ghasley, I think I need to get out more. I had no idea that others were doing this. Thanks for the heads-up. Questionable indeed. Dac 8, Reference Dac & CD9 might canibalize each other. . | |
| Is the ''entry level'' DAC becoming extinct ? .The introduction of the new Audio Research CD9 cd player that includes a high-end dac with access to use other digital sources will probably start a trend for higher end dacs to be included on the majority of high end cd players and other digital... | |
| Anyone road test the new ARC Ref CD-9?? .No volume control on this model, it would canibalize their reference dac.. | |
| Is the ''entry level'' DAC becoming extinct ? .Entry level preamps could be in trouble too. Last weekend I heard an Oppo 105 connected directly to an amp, it was outstanding. . | |
| Donald Byrd .Bummer. Sad to hear that he's gone on to play in heaven. The first thing I ever heard by him was 'Flight Time' back in '73, and I loved that jam. Since then my tastes in jazz have changed to straight-ahead jazz...I then re-discovered his earlier ... | |
| Johnny B. Goode Xiekitchen, the version on 'Mama Africa' is 7 min long. The version on his greatest hits compilation has the 4 min version, which is probably the same as the '45 you are speaking of....the bass is boiling. | |
| Passing of James Bongiorno .As a college kid in the 70's, I used to dream of one day owning a set of Bongiorno designed SAE badass stereo equipment.. |
