Dennis is correct on the missing EQ at 150 Hz. I had the C42 and it is not a fully balanced Pre nor is the C46, but I do like the volume control on both. They are better than the 712 or 15 and I think one of the main reasons they sound better. Good Luck.
Any McIntosh C46 users??
Hello! I am considering this preamp to upgrade from my trusty little McIntosh C712. One of the main reasons is for the equalizer because I have been doing in-room response measurements that have brought some room issues to my attention. I have the TAS review of it but they left out one of the equalizer values. They listed 7 when there should be 8 and I see a hole between 70Hz and 300Hz which I suspect is the missing value. Can anyone read it off your preamp? That is the zone that needs correction and I am estimating the preamp's potential effectiveness.
Also any opinions about its sound is appreciated. Comparisons with other preamps are most helpful for me.
Thanks!
Arthur
