"The ARC Reference 5 is a beguiling performer that created the deepest, most organic, most compelling soundstage of any preamp I’ve had in my system. Never less than musically engaging, the Ref 5 was so quiet, capable, and easy to enjoy that I could forget about the glowing tubes inside (but for the need to toggle it on and off)." - SoundStage Ultra
