I had ARC gear, including the Ref 40th and then the ARC Ref. 10. About 4 years ago I started switching to Octave. First the MRE 220 Monos and then the Jubilee preamp.
Octave amps with the additional capacitance provided by the Super Black Box ("SBB") will drive any speaker, irrespective of the load challenges. More importantly, Octave gear represents the best of both design worlds: the transient speed, inner detail and punch of solid state and the bloom, realism and atmosphere that only valves can produce.
There RE 320 is an incredible stereo amp and only requires a single SBB. It will amaze. One of the members in our local audio club has one and it is the envy of our group.
