McIntosh MA-6900 Integrated Amp - Your Thoughts?


I have a McIntosh MA-6900 (200 watts, iconic looks, etc)driving a pair of Paradigm Reference Signature Six speakers. My sources are a basic CD player and an iPod (connected to Wadia i170 and Bryston DAC). To me, the sound is good but you know how this hobby is - there alwyas might be something better....I would be very interested in anyone's opinion of this setup and any improvements you might suggest.
Thank you.

'Boulderskies' sounds like you're in Colorado as am I. Be glad to chat with you since I have McIntosh equipment and have tweaked to make the cound compelling and would be glad to share thoughts with you.
I think you can email me directly via A-Gon.

Try a pair of Clear Day Cables double shotgun speaker cables. You can try them for 30 days free so the risk is nil. These cables really opened up the sound of my system and at a relatively small cost. There are many others on these boards who have had similar experiences as me with these cables. Do a search and you will see what I mean.
Just returned the Cambridge Stream 6. Impossible to read the display in the light of day. Much easier with my laptop connected to a decent DAC.
