| For Tube Folks... Use the new tube, it's the way to go. You are trouble free.Tung Sol is good enough for me and it's lifespan is very long. | |
| ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE STREAMERS REALLY WORTH IT The key point is the digital signal process, This could be done with a good streamer or DDC or DAC. It must be a device to take care of it in your music system. Some one choose a very expensive streamer which include the function, but it is not... | |
| What contributes most to a change in how an amplifier sounds? Yes,the design matters. This is single most important thing for ever. | |
| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? McIntosh Mc901 very good. | |
| Integrated amp: Component weight Interesting topic. If I am OP, I choose house sound first,not the weight, as I can't carry it, I will ask for help,it is the one time moving and it is not a big deal. Different brands make very very different sound and individual people always h... | |
| Looking for 200 watt Amp to drive Dynaudio Heritage speakers $1200 for 200wpc https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/650070798-aragon-4004-mk2-200wpcpower-amp-excellent/ | |
| A tube amp equivalent to ARC-80S or 160S? Audio research ref 75se used one will be a good replacement. | |
| Integrateds: Luxman vs. Ayre? The best way is to have the chance listening, Both Ayre and McIntosh are special, some people love it and some people don't like it. | |
| Need a big favor picking a preamp How about luxman c-10x ? It is upgraded model of c900u, which can beat audio research ref 6se. At the price range under $20000, should be the one of best choice. | |
| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? Happy New Year and enjoy the listening! Who care other people's comment? You just enjoy yourself. McIntosh really bring us the joy! I do agree. By the way, MA352 is solid state amp. I remembered wrong as I am on skiing this morning. | |
| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? @jeffreyw my model is 352,and pre is 2100 if I remembered right., both tubed. I also listened 611 which is newer model. I don't think McIntosh changed their house sound. The sound changed very small. I know someone love that sound. Enjoy the list... | |
| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? @jeffreyw to be clear, I am talking McIntosh 's sound is good or bad. Any brand has its feature. I bought new McIntosh pre and power many years ago and use it for many years, and then sell it out and move to audio research. McIntosh is not hifi so... | |
| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? @roxy54 what are you talking about? Famous brand doesn't meaning good for everyone! McIntosh 's sound has their feature and people in hifi field just don't like it. I tell the true fact! What the problem with you? You are stay away if you comment... | |
| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? " lifeless sounds" @lalitk is very accurate description. Their sound is flat and slow, it becomes the style, at least as far as I know some people love it. It make people related and release during the listening, who doesn't care the the music it... |
