Here is some additional information from an on-line review.
Sound"Agile and tuneful, even bouncy.... Its graceful, non-stressful presentation drew me into the musical experience and make me want to stay put in my listening chair." "Bass with the VS115 had tangible weight and power, so that the bottom octaves provided a strong foundation for the musical structure," "but the VS115’s true strength lay in the all-important midrange." "It wasn’t so much that the VS115 revealed previously unheard detail in familiar recordings, but rather that it presented the detail as more clearly integrated into the whole performance so that it made more sense."
Features"The $6495 USD VS115 uses the hybrid circuit currently favored by Audio Research. JFET inputs followed by Sovtek 6H30 tube drivers. Output tubes are Audio Research’s long-favored 6550Cs, specifically Winged C-brand tubes from Russia. There are eight of them to be exact, or four matched pairs."
Adjustment"Also on the rear panel is a series of contacts for measuring the bias setting of each pair of tubes. When you replace tubes, which must be done in matched pairs, you can use a digital volt/ohm meter to set the bias correctly. That sure beats opening up the amplifier and measuring the bias across the tube pins, exposing yourself to lethal voltages."
