Audio Research Ref 110


I have 88 hours on my new Ref 110 and it sounds v shrill, with a somewhat thin midrange. I have heard that this unit takes 300 hours to break in. Will this shrillness go away as part of the break in process?

Mickey sg, looking at your system, it is amazing to me that with the MIRRORS behind your system that any amp through any speakers would sound anything but thin and 'shrill'!
Perhaps locating the whole system in a better location or alternatively damping/covering the mirrors with some kind of major absorbtion would go a long way to helping your problem.
Mick,
I think I did confuse you with Gpgr4blu,since he doesn't
show us his system. However, i am still amazed that what I and Oregonpapa said about your system doesn't apply!
I can't imagine a worse room for listening to music than a super reflective room that it appears you enjoy.
