audio Research REF 110 and KT 120 tubes


Hi

I have a REF 110 with 6550C tube
i'm looking for someone who heard the REF 110 with new tubes KT120
(i know it's possible to change them, Kalvin from ARC confirmed it)

If yes, how the REF 110 sounds ?

inside the new REF 110 it's the same as the old (like mine 2008)
the only difference is the tubes KT 120 ?

"Hello Patrice,

The KT 120 has more dynamics and better bass than the 6550. The amplifier also has more a little more headroom before it gets compressed.
