The Audio Research Reference 3 is a high-end vacuum tube integrated amplifier designed and built by Audio Research Corporation in the USA. It incorporates some of the most advanced audio technology available today, making it a favorite among audiophiles and music lovers who demand nothing but the very best sound reproduction.The Reference 3 utilizes eight KT150 tube outputs for a total output power of 250 watts per channel in pure class A operation. This design ensures that every note is delivered with clarity, detail, and low-level micro-dynamics that are often lost in other amplifiers.The Reference 3 features a dual-mono circuit topology, with separate power supplies, transformers, and input circuits for each channel, providing exceptional channel separation and musical depth. It also employs a new generation of custom-made carbon composite resistors that offer a significantly lower noise floor, preserving delicate details that other amplifiers might mask.The amplifier's output stages employ a new "High Definition Circuit" that preserves the natural harmonics, tonal richness, and Low-Level Micro-Dynamics of the original performance. The Reference 3 also incorporates a low-feedback design that enables it to deliver a full-bodied, natural, and detailed sound quality.Overall, the Audio Research Reference 3 is a true reference-level integrated amplifier that offers exceptional sound quality, unparalleled sonic detail, and high-level performance that is unmatched by any other amplifiers in its class. It is a must-have for audiophiles, music enthusiasts, and those who demand nothing but the very best in sound reproduction.
