VSi75 owners
 

Any VSi75 owners out there?

I'm interested to know this as well as i've been lurking for one second hand for a second system. I love the specs but wished they had xlr options.

Hi guys, i'm a new one on this exellent blog!
Recently i bought a VSi75 and I've matched it to
Wilson Audio Sophia 3!
My source is ARC CD 5!
VSi75 substitued ARC SP14 and ARC Classic 60 aged but still working good!
I think that VSi75 is a wonderful integrated amp, surely better than VSi60!
Any suggestions about loudspeaker cable?
Cd and amp are linked by kimber kcag and kimber 4tc connects Sophia 3!

Welcome to AA!
Regards,
Jim

arises.......I'm interested in the Audio Research VSi75 integrated amplifier. I don't need another amplifier of any kind, but that hasn't quelled my interest. I think the VSi75 is an attractive audio component.

Power Output: 75 watts per channel continuous from 20Hz to 20kHz. 1 kHz total harmonic distortion typically 1.5% at 75 watts, .05% at 1 watt
Frequency Response: (-3dB points at 1 watt) 1.0Hz to 70 kHz
Maximum Input: 10V RMS (any input)
Output Taps: 8 ohms, 4 ohms
Tubes Required: 2-Matched pair KT120-Power Output; 2 -6H30 driver

I am using Transparent Reference cable. A bit pricey but sounds great.

ARC-Transparent-Wilson sounds really nice together.

This component looks very nice.

Pedro.......I agree. There is just something about the VSi75's overall design and appearance that I find very appealing. It is a unique integrated amplifier and at $7500 it can easily be the backbone of a high-end system on a budget. I do wish ARC had included at least a single pair of balanced inputs.

Not an owner, but wish I was...that is one beautiful sounding amp, with the looks to match. After all the fanfare surrounding the VSi60, it's seems like there's very little talk about the VSi75. I haven't yet seen a review on it. Maybe in 2014?
