I note the Ref designation. Is this the new look for Ref products? Will there be a Ref 250M, 275M or 300M with the same design?

Honestly speaking, I am not liking the departure from the traditional ARC aesthetics over to this new faux retro design language.

The design is similar to the GS150 which I happen to really like.

Wonder if it will also include some sort of protection in the event of tube failure?

I don't think ARC have abandoned the sacrificial resistor method.
