Audio Research D70

Magnificent Audio Research D-70 Tube Power Amplifier in perfect aesthetic and working condition. This unit has been fully serviced by our team of specialized technicians.

Released in 1983, the Audio Research D-70 is a tube amplifier in the tradition of the prestigious American brand. Aesthetically, nothing changes from the classic 19-inch rack-mountable aluminum front panel, featuring matching handles, black silk-screened labeling, and LED power indicators.

However, the true value of Audio Research lies inside the unit, with three oversized transformers—one in the center for the main power supply and two others for impedance matching, ensuring that this power amplifier delivers consistent performance regardless of speaker impedance.

Equipped with:
- 4 x 6550 tubes for power
- 1 x 6550 tube for screen regulation
- 7 x 6DJ8 tubes
- 1 x 12AX7 tube

All of these are arranged in a push-pull Class AB configuration, within a circuit designed for stable operation despite voltage variations, featuring an enhanced version of Audio Research's patented cross-coupled amplification circuits.

The D70 delivers a solid 60 watts per channel at 8 Ohms, making it capable of driving a wide range of speakers with ease. However, to fully unlock its sonic potential, it must be paired with a high-quality preamplifier.

After a 30-minute warm-up, this amplifier offers a highly detailed, ultra-smooth sound with an exceptional sense of warmth—truly one of the best power amplifiers ever produced by Audio Research. A sonic gem.

Paired with the magnificent Audio Research SP6 B, the listening experience is intoxicating—after this combination, it's hard to go back to anything else!
