Audio Research Ref 5 in Silver: MINT Condition
Perfect working order, no scratches, original owner, box, manual, remote, chord. Get this amazing preamp at less than 50% of the retail price! Just in time for Christmas.
Legendary preamp needs a new home, I am selling much of my gear.
This is not the SE version, which is somewhat analytical sounding IMO. I really like how this amp's tubes mellow the digital sound from my dac and really brings the music out into the room. Tube bloom is amazing.
Thanks for looking. Please refrain from any lowball activity.

Questions for the seller |

Hi graywind, how many original hours are clocked on this unit and what type of top cover is included? Thanks, Jack The tubes recently showed about 1300 hours and were new when I installed them. They function properly and there is no noise or microphonics coming from them.
