Considering a Hegel preamp I experimented with using Hegel p20s and later with p30s in two separate systems both employing McIntosh power amplifiers. The power amplifiers were, and still are, an MC402 and an MC152. The preamp I was using with both amps was a McIntosh C47. ... | |
used mc452 or new mc312 Any recent thoughts from those who have compared the mc452 to the Mc312? I wanted to revive this old thread in hopes of getting some more recent opinions based on experience. The two products should be similar in price. I am thinking of upgradin... | |
Dynamic Duo: T+A DAC 200 and Lumin U2 (not the mini) @ready4audio I tried the ethernet input. I would say the results were an A+. In my opinion the fiber optical was a little better, with more sparkle and dynamics. A++. | |
Dynamic Duo: T+A DAC 200 and Lumin U2 (not the mini) @ready4audio I have approximately 300 hundred hours on the U2 now. I would say that the sound quality is a noticeable improvement over my Ultrarendu. It is extremely quiet, has a very natural texture, and, best of all it has an ease that let's th... | |
Dynamic Duo: T+A DAC 200 and Lumin U2 (not the mini) @ready4audio I have just ordered a Lumin U2. Curious as to how long it took to break in. Also, any tips or suggestions on how to get the best out of it? I have read that the optical input is the best. | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship I would write to Musetec at bleerock@126.com with this question. I assume you are using RCA outputs which should have lower voltage than the XLRs. | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @shmeet It will be interesting to see if the Musetec preamp MH-SA001 has a special synergy with the 006 when both are fully broken in. Please keep us posted. | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @noelpastor I’m in south Florida in the winter where I have the 006. If you're nearby, I suggest buying the X-30 on Amazon, breaking it in, and bring it over to my house to compare. If the x30 lost the competition, you could return it within 30 da... | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @shmeet I understand you bought the Musetec preamp. Can you describe it's sound and how it effects the 006 presentation? | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @shmeet As @sns suggested, you should ask if they will send both and allow you to return one. | |
Has anyone compared the Opticalrendu streamer to the upgraded Opticalrendu Deluxe? @boulder_bob Thanks for finding this thread. I have provided excerpts below to make it easier for future readers. In essence one new user complained that before break-in the Opticalrendu Deluxe was cold sounding compared to his Zen Stream. The man... | |
I am checking out these DAC's for my system @shmeet This is off topic, but could you tell us more about you experience with the Mustec preamp? I have never seen a review of it. What tube preamplifier do you have that it equals? Thanks. | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @brbrock I have not seen your thread where you said the 006 might be fatiguing, but just to be clear, I briefly was bothered by certain high frequency sounds like violins during break-in being harsh. This passed. My final conclusion is that I hav... | |
Sonore Signature Rendu SE @brianclark1969 I assume you are referring to the old signature SE version, not the current deluxe version. Is that correct? | |
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @brbrock couldn't find it on the website either. You could email Jinbo at Musetec: bleerock@126.com. |
