Still isn't. The amp was a poor physical implementation of an unstable design. A design that can't accommodate normal production tolerances of active components isn't ready for prime time. If they still wanted to proceed with this they could have selected parts. Apparently they didn't. Holding component suppliers responsible for their lack of design and manufacturing expertise is just shifting blame. A bad look.
I acquired the amp after listening to it. i liked it. I don't give a shit what Harry Pearson thought of it. He's not me. He doesn't have my system. He doesn't have my room. He doesn't have my ears. Plus he obviously didn't have it long enough to really experience it in all its DC rail fuse blowing glory. No more ARC for me . . . One lifetime.
