Bump.
The Serial # of my AR12 is AR-110105-07. I spoke with Audience who informed me that it was one of the first units manufactured. Audience also provided me with a list of available updates and corresponding prices (see below).
Due to the age of my unit, I have reduced the price to $1100.
aR12 Upgrades:
Cap damping – this option includes applying new Audience capacitor damping technology to reduce microphonics, resulting in greater focus and clarity. - $750
Ground plane – (check serial # for G to identify if this feature is already included) This upgrade is the insertion of large star wire ground plane for slightly improved resolution and greatly improved pace/rhythm/timing (PRaT). $650 - See copper plate on bottom
S filter – this optional RF filter reaches down into the audible range further lowering the noise floor resulting in greater clarity, focus and sound staging. - $1,000
All OHNO Wire- $1400
S-Filter & All OHNO Bundled- $2000
Gold Fork- $450
Rhodium/Copper Duplex- $1200
Complete upgrade to TS version - includes a complete rebuild and replacement of all Teflon capacitors to the significantly improved Aura-TO version and includes the above cap damping option and Ground Plane. This is a very significant upgrade to the highest standard of performance. The result is a stunning degree of improvement in overall transparency allowing you to hear much more into the music. – $5800** (Upgrade to TSS Version- $6800**)** Does not include All OHNO upgrade or Duplex
**If customer has an aR12-T, discount TS or TSS upgrade $1000
Upgrade to Au24 SE powerChord (Highly Recommended) – The upgrade to the award winning Au24 SE powerChord is highly recommended for all Audience power conditioners. The sound is improved in just about every way. - $1,800 (exchange for existing powerChord e).
