Gentlemens,
I intend to purchase a AR REF DAC and an AR AMP.
For the AMP, I am hesitating between the REF75 and the VSi75.
- I somehow prefer the look of the VSi75 but... I wonder if the REF 75 sound really better than the VSi 75 ? I don't want to compromise on the sound just for the look of those 4 tubes !
- And If I get a VSi75, since it is an Integrated AMP, can I bypass it's pre-amp/volume controle (and use it only as a powerAMP) in order to use the Pré-Amp & Volume controle of the REF DAC ?
thanks in advance
