Audio Research REFERENCE 250 monoblock amplifiers

Mint condition, one owner Audio Research Reference 250 amplifiers. Freshly retubed with Audio Research sourced tubes-- only 15 hours on all tubes. We sold and installed originally. At 250 watts per channel, this is a very powerful set of tube amps. To quote from Tone Audio's review: "The sheer dynamic punch the REF 250s possess is simply unbelievable—the soundstage never collapses, even at near concert-hall levels. I haven’t listened to music this loud in my listening room in a long time. Yet the REF 250s handle it so effortlessly, it’s easy to keep goosing the volume control further and further, waiting for a hint of compression or distortion. It never arrives." There are many other positive reviews, of course.

No trade offers, please. By the way, the freight quote from Audiogon will be wrong for two reasons-- there are two boxes, and insurance is not considered. We will bill our exact freight cost. If you have any questions about this pair of amplifiers, please ask.
