| Conrad Johnson vs. McInosh.... I've owned both..... I had a McIntosh C15 and it was good. I think my Conrad Johnson Classic 2SE is much better but it's not apples to apples being tube vs solid state and being newer and more expensive. That C15 served me well, five years not one... | |

| Balanced power amp and subwoofer connection. I would just drive it via the preamp........ | |
| McCormack RLD-1 v. Mcintosh C2200 I had a RLD 1 , it was nice but have since upgraded to a Conrad Johnson Classic 2 SE. No remote but awesome sound......I thought it sounded better than the C200 for what it's worth | |

| DAC Recommendation around 2.5K I've had my M51 about a month and love it. I am putting all of my CDs on a hard drive so I can play them through my Blu Ray player. It sounds great, I also have some hi rez files on the drive that sound incredible..... | |
