Audio Research Corp Ref 5 SE


Just picked up news on another OP that ARC is upgrading the Ref 5 to an SE version that incorporates some of the technology from the Ref 40. The other OP posted the URL link below. Does anyone have any solid information anout this news development? Has anyone heard the Ref 5 SE? Same rumor about an SE version of the Ref Phono 2?

Meanwhile, in Brazil we have no deadline for delivery of 5 Ref SE, much less upgrade. I have the Ref 5, and opting for Ref 5 SE upgrade, I have a doubt, the front panel of the new model has the "SE" logo?
I switched to the CD 8, and found the wonderful change, combined with the very Ref 5, McIntosh 601 and Sonus Faber Amati Futura.
