| Favorite religious song Aretha Franklin How I Got Over Live at New Temple Missionary Baptist Church if you’re not religious, you will be after this song. | |
| most beautiful (looking) speakers Sonus Faber | |
| Can a Amp be "timeless" and compete with todays amps? How cool that you hung onto some great equipment, updated it, and will enjoy it for many years to come. That old saying “buy once, cry once” holds true in this situation. I’ve just bought a new integrated, but hope to hold onto it for the rest o... | |
| Roon Roon Nucleus + user and fan here. | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? @ps yes it is! | |
| Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers? It all matters but if the speakers and placement aren’t right, nothing else matters. | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? Integrated all the way. Love the clean setup of my McIntosh MA8900, Roon Nucleus+, and Sonus Faber Olympica Nova Vs. | |
| Klipsch Forte IV ... what amp ? McIntosh MA252 tube integrated would pair beautifully. | |
| Upgrade system to stream Tidal @tboy Looks like the Cambridge has a built in DAC + Bluetooth, so I’m not sure you need a dedicated streamer. You could probably stream off a laptop perhaps? If not, would suggest something like a Bluesound Node 2. | |
| I miss my Loudness Button and Tone Controls.... I’ve got tone controls on my McIntosh MA8900 and like them for things like rock and hip hop. For jazz and classical recordings, I typically turn it off. | |
| Best upgrade: amp or pre-amp? I’d consider an integrated amplifier. You’ll get more bang for your buck. If you’re comfortable sharing a budget, I’m sure folks could better help with suggestions. | |

| McIntosh MA9000 temperature in standby I have the MA8900 and it runs very cool, even at high volumes (say 40 on the volume knob). Agree with the poster up thread that I would contact McIntosh directly as those temps seem high. | |
| Sonus Faber speakers @andrew_r I’m using a Roon Nucleus + with a Tidal subscription | |
| OMG!!! Hegel H120 & 190 Finally Roon Ready Love my Roon + Tidal setup. Glad you can finally enjoy! |
