I have heard the AR 5 SE with SA-103 driving Franco Serblin Accordo's as well as AR Ref 3 with SA-102 mono blocks driving SF Guarneri Memento and pure magic in both instances.


Thanks, Douglas. Though very happy with the 601's sound, I'm a little concerned about their long term reliability as I've now had both of them have bias issues causing them to become much warmer (hot) than normal. Just outside of warranty, unfortunately. Keeping options open for next year.
