The Reference 320M is designed to provide significantly more power to drive the most demanding loudspeakers on the market while revealing the music in a way no other amplifier can do, providing the resolution, dynamics, and subtle nuances which unite to recreate the original musical performance.
The skilled team of engineers and listeners at Audio Research created a new masterwork that is not just bigger, it's performance sets a new elevated standard. From the quietest whisper to the roaring fortissimo of a symphony orchestra, the Reference 320M moves from micro to macro to effortlessly deliver an unforgettable musical experience.
The Reference 320M follows the same form factor as the other Reference amplifiers in the series, including the striking GhostMeter® that provides a window to the 11 vacuum tubes standing out from the top plate. The amplifier is entirely hand-built in our Minnesota facility by a team of skilled craftspeople with one focus - to advance the state-of-the-art in music reproduction.
Expected to be available later this fall.
