Audio Research ARC Ref 5 versions?

Hi,
Would anyone know if, apart of the obvious SE version, there were differences between earlier units of the Ref 5 and more recent ones?
If so, when was the "cut" between earlier and recent?
Thanks.

Will check with ARC on upgrade cost. Might be worthwhile to get a used Ref 5 and then upgrade. That is if I become convinced it exceeds SQ of my noble Wyetech Opal, which would be a major accomplishment. Neal
