Audio Research LS3 owners....


I have seen a couple different versions of this preamp...one with Balanced outputs and detachable pc...the other with RCAs and standard pc cord...is this correct? I assume they had different retail pricing when produced...at any rate...would this be a significant improvement over an Adcom gfp 565 or am I splitting hairs? I am using an late 80s Belles amp as power...thanks...

i have the ls3b and ,the remote was a 500 to 600.00,not many out there with it..the power cord on all ls3 were fixed no iec option ,although i put iec on mine.go to arc web and hit links there is a guy who made up all there stuff it has every thing you need to know..i replaced my adcom for this ls3b and,its alot of preamp compared to the old adcom,the direct mode is great for cd playback..if you can get one in the 500 or so range with bal out get it.you dont have to use bal but if you ever need it hey its there..you can always sale it
