In Reply to: NAZ I just noticed the picture you posted below on the Martin Logans and the SETs posted by Michael Samra on October 16, 2016 at 00:16:48:
Photography is another interest of mine ... and we won't talk about cars:)
The other pic I previously posted is from the mag article (not cover). It was a several page spread.
The ARC amps you are referring to are actually early to mid Ref600 monos. I modified them extensively, (converted them to triode mode among many other changes) and this inspired me to try something totally new. I still have them and they sound quite good for PP.
While the ARCs were pretty good, much better than all the SS stuff I'd tried including well revereed amps and even huge Class A monos they never gave me what I was hoping for and so my mods began. Converting them to triode mode was what really got me excited. This made them "musical" (the first hint of that SET 3D quality) and it set me on the path that led to SET.
