ARC = What are the Golden Amps


I'm looking to purchase a new amp (used). What would you consider as ARC's best vintage amps...looking from late 80's to mid 90's with a budget ceiling of $3500. Since my system is pretty much balanced, would prefer the amp be that way also.

My system:
pre amp: ARC LS 25
ARC PH5
VPI TNT 3.5
ARC CD 2
Speakers: Wilson Witts (series 1)
Current amp ARC VT 130 --really like it esp for small jazz, all vocals. Want more dynamic range for large scale orchestra (I love Malher)

I heard the Classic 60 earlier this year. This is PP Triode
if I am not mistaken. It sounded very good, with plenty of detail and texture. This one is a winner IMO.
