Reduced to ridiculous £1299 as (a) In a festive good mood, and (b) want to fund something else! On E Bay for more. Real bargain for someone about as good as they get in the ARC series before Reference stuff. The LS16 has some LS25 and ref components so quite close to a ref without the frills and bells, whistles etc. UK dealer has one isted s/h for £2300 - so save a grand. Balanced and single ended inputs/outputs, remote and boxed - having clearout of recent preamp trials! :D
