RE: ARC with Quads must be great... But...

I used to have a pair of Klipschorns that I drove with Welborne 300B SETs--wonderful amps for those big guys. However, I ultimately decided to let go of the K-horns and shortly afterwards sold the SETs as well to recoup the money I had invested. ARC VT-100s are a bit of overkill with my Quads or Model 19s, but they are quiet, sound great, and I don't have to worry about running out of steam. Both pairs of speakers sound great with the ARC preamp and amp, so I figure if it ain't broke don't "fix" it!

I'd like to get it down to one pair of speakers, but it'll take me quiet awhile to decide which way to go. I love them both, but, of course, they're very different. Model 19s are HUGE, crisp and a little bass heavy, Quads are sweet, detailed and a bit less dynamic...I love these old components...very good audio for the money, and I love that vintage vibe!

Cheers,

George
