Manley Snapper Monoblocks or Mcintosh MC252


Which direction should I go?

Hello 3amadors,
Your question is valid. I have owned the Dynaudio Special 25's, and had C1's home for a trial, so I have a little experience with them.

In my room with my system I found the McIntosh to give the best sound. I use the MC402. I tried a small tube amp and it did not have the power for dynamic passages. The speakers lacked bass, slam, and fulness. And Dynaudios are very capable of those qualities.

Consider a McIntosh audition in your home and see what you think!
Sometimes I think that there should be a mandatory basic audio education couse (and test!) required before anyone can be allowed to buy high-end audio products.

But then what would we do for fun?
Thank you fot taking the time to reply which I do appreciate, especially since you have experience with the dynaudios, tubes and the mcintosh. I plan to try to arrange an audition a Mcintosh amp at home sometime this summer and I suspect I will find, as you say, that the mac will drive my dynaudios better.

Thanks!
