1 Audio Research SP6b tube preamplifier. Has phone stage. Original owner. The power on toggle switch is broken off. The unit works fine, but the toggle switch will have to be replaced or fixed. NO shipping. Pickup only.

In excellent condition. May have some shelf wear such as dust, etc. Used only a handful of times, and has been stored since. Tested and working amazingly. Some scratches on top or marks throughout as expected due to age and light use. One original owner. Do not miss out on this rare opportunity to own this rare machine! *The testing was to the extent that it turns on, and fires up correctly. Didn’t have a system to test it on beyond that. * Rare users manuals also included. This enhances the sound amazingly! Thank you for looking and happy shopping!

ATTENTION! This auction is for AUDIO RESEARCH AMPLIFIER CLASSIC 60 ONLY!!!!! If you want to by extra AUDIO RESEARCH PREAMPLIFIER SP-14 - See My other auctions.The new Classic 60 Hybrid Stereo Power Amplifier resembles the long-popular D115 in Audio Researchs family of High Definition® power amplifiers. But its lineage is strictly Classic 150. Which means nothing less than state-of-the-art in design, construction, musicality, and operational convenience...at an affordable price. Like the Classic 150, the Classic 60 proceeds from the notion that power ratings dont always describe a power amplifiers real capabilities. Far more important are such qualities as dynamic stability. lucidity, subtlety. And to achieve those, Audio Research has used its traditional partial cathode coupling along with triode operation of the Classic 60s eight 6550 power output tubes. Additional circuit improvements, as well as the usual rigorous parts selection and manufacturing Audio Research, are noted for, also contributing sonically. Translated into the language of listening, this signifies stunning bandwidth, a noise floor virtually beneath audibility, and musically fulfilling SPLs at dramatically lower gain settings. Dynamics, timbres of individual instruments, soundstage, and musical emotion all surge out from a black velvet of silence. Simply put the Classic 60 resolves far more of a musical program than amplifiers rated at two, three, or four times its seemingly modest 60 WPC. But the Classic 60 is easily up to the task of driving all but the most demanding loudspeakers, even in spacious listening rooms. And while it shows modest preamplifiers in their best light, it also shines when coupled with premiere designs, such as Audio Researchs SP14 or SP15. Convenience figures are high on the Classic 60s list of attributes, as well. For example, the DC balance of the output tubes is maintained automatically, while tube biasing continuously adjusts to changes in incoming line voltage. Performance stays razor-sharp without bothersome tweaking or adjustments. And quiet fan cooling, along with triode operation, means significantly longer tube life.

ATTENTION! This auction is for AUDIO RESEARCH PREAMPLIFIER SP 14 ONLY!!!!! If you want to by extra AUDIO RESEARCH CLASSIC 60 - See My other auctions. The SP14s musicality comes surprisingly close to the state of the art, with soundstage of remarkable depth and breadth; imaging of uncanny solidity: palpable dynamic authority; timbral accuracy that virtually recreates live music; an exceptionally low noise floor; and a special ease with frequency extremes. But unlike many high-performance preamplifiers, the SP14 doesnt scrimp on control features. It has separate Gain and Attenuation for wide-ranging-yet-subtle level management. Separate Input and Record Output selectors (with a common menu) permit exceptional flexibility in playing and recording: owners can listen to one source while recording from another. The Bypass switch allows owners to remove the Balance and Mode controls from the signal path, for greater sonic purity. There are two separate sets of outputs, and three power outlets. And, of course, the SP14 features its own version of the hybrid technology that has made Audio Research electronics world-famous. As with every Audio Research product, SP14 parts quality, construction and factory support are the finest in the audio industry, with a two-decade track record to prove it. And all this comes at only half the cost of the celebrated SP15. FREQUENCY RESPONSEHigh-level section: ±.5dB, 5Hz to 50kHz, -3db points below 1Hz and above 200 kHz.

Audio Research ARC SP-16 Tube preamplifier W Remote. I purchased this tube preamplifier about two months ago, and it was only used for a few hours in my system. This preamplifier does have a tube phono section as well as a tube line level section. The tubes in the photo section are the stock electro harmonix 12ax7’s. I did swap the tubes in the line level section to some used NOS,RCA Tubes. Two of those tubes are 12ax7’s and one is a 5751. I would describe the sound as extremely clean and pristine. But I wouldn’t describe the sound is overly tube like. I would rate the condition at a 7/10. A few minor scratches is all. No returns and shipping to the US continental only!
