Actually, to answer once again your questions, there were a total of 3 units, the ARC REF ll, its Phono Stage, and a Dr. Arthur Loesch design pre-amp - thats three, no?? The parts (your stuff) was sourced not by me - I just put them in!! Maybe I was wrong in my 7 month estimate - so what! To flately state that I "never heard" your V-Cap is totally wrong, and therin lies its major shortcoming: One can hear the damn thing!! Furthermore, one can hear it not only at 10 hours, but at 50, at 100, at 200, at 400, at 600, etc. Will it ever form?? I suppose that with your product installed one has to "hope that it will sound good as it did yesterday", but may not tomorrow!! So much for consistancy. You may be able to "fool" these kids with your fancy advertisements, I personally like those "rave" testimonials, but you can't fool somebody with over 40 years of experience with these things. (No, I'm not talking about your V-Cap here, lest you accuse me of additional "time travel"), but of electronics in general!! When was the last time you actually tried to "solder"?? Maybe you never have - no? Ever done any 'prototyping' - don't know what that is - thought so. How about winding your own transformers?? Oh well - I guess it comes down to "anything for a buck" - no??
