Ljgj, thanks for your comments, I appreciate it! I listen mostly to classical, both large-scale and small-scale. So I guess the only thing the 2102 has against it are the accurate reproductions of crescendos and tuttis in symphonies, but it should be well suited to everything else. Is there anything else out there with regard to amplifiers in that price range or slightly above you could recommend to giving a listen?
Mcintosh MC352 / 2102
Hi,
I have a Mcintosh MC352 hooked up to BW 803n speakers (peamp is Levinson 380s), and while the sound is very clear and pure, I think it is lacking overtones (maybe even order harmonics?), and generally, the feeling of the recording hall is not there.
My question is, if I switch to a Mcintosh MC2102, will the sound be truer? Does anyone have experience with both amps? Or will the difference be minimal? If there is a difference, does the MC2102 have enough steam for a normal-sized room (12x15)?
Thanks for any suggestions,
hgabert
