I have enjoyed a McIntosh C50/MC452 for nearly a year now, just had a friend over who said "love that McIntosh tube sound". These are a smooth sounding combination.
Preamp for McIntosh MC-602
Hi, I have had my McIntosh MC-602 for a couple years now, paired with a set of Magnepan MG 20.1s. For awhile now I've been using an old McIntosh C36 preamp. It works ok, but I could use something a little better. Traditionally I've liked passive preamps (I am mostly vinyl, so a whole lot of features in the preamp doesn't appeal to me). Sadly my Luminous Axiom II just won't work with the 602. I am assuming there isn't a passive preamp out there that will, but am open to suggestions. Aside from the passive preamp, is there another preamp out there you would recommend? I certainly think the newer McIntosh preamps would work fine with it, but they are pretty pricey for all the extra doo-dads that I really won't use. I just want basic, but basic that will handle the 602. Input impedance is 10k ohms...
thanks in advance
