oh by the way, it seems i have a volume imbalance..i have to go left about 4 clicks to even it out. I checked everything. it's the ref6 .is this part of the break-in?..the plot thickens. maybe another call to ARC tech is in order. mike Last edited by michael paul; 12-12-2017 at 11:38 PM.

The right input plays louder than the left input. So if I am centered, I have to adjust the balance .at least four clicks

The Ref 5 was great. Then I heard the Ref40. With the Teflon caps. And it was phenomenal. So Ref5SE. Which was trickle down from Ref 40 Then not too long ago I wanted a balanced dual input phono preamp Enter Ref Phono 3. And it was wow. So the Ref 6

Well that is definitely not normal. It's defective or your source is not right.

i actually have to move it about 7 clicks to one side to level the sound. i didnt realize this from the start and it really messes things up especially at a higher volume. got to make a call |

Something is wrong because the tubes’ output voltages are matched by ARC. First check that you placed the correct tube in each socket and they’re fully inserted. If so, you may have a defective tube or other issue with the preamp. In that case, contact your dealer. Best of Luck, Ken |

UPDATE: Guys, this is insane. yesterday i turned my system on.
it is completely different animal!! at the 30 hour mark it sounds like i was hoping it would!! my belief in high end audio is fully restored! i was never a believer in break in or burn in, but i guess it is true! holy cow! i spent the day on the couch listening to as much as i can. the volume imbalance also corrected itself. go figure. i have seen posts where it might be inconsistent. but it just fantastic! this is not a head game . or like i got acclimated or anything. trust me. the first few hours i could not be in the same room with the sound. it was like a sony receiver from best buy. this is surely a Christmas Miracle!!! oh by the way, i am officially an ARC fan!!! mike ps: i found out that i actually have a 30 day return policy!!. IT AINT GOIN BACK!!! |
