New for 2022, our new Audio Research Corporation Remote is included with current models such as the Reference 6 amplifier. The new ARC Remote is hand-crafted, from a solid billet of aluminum, with a black Cerakote finish. The face of the remote is a charcoal black acrylic that is laser etched in our facility. The face is held in place by magnets, and there are no external screws. A long-life 3V coin battery is used for power instead of AA or AAA batteries.
