I have no experience with Mcintosh gear, but have noticed using silver interconnects and speaker cable especially speeds the proceedings up dramatically. Speakercable 16 solid core silver strands, flat braided makes the sound much more immediate.
Why is my Mcintosh MC-2155 slow?
Dear 'Goners,
I have a beautiful Mcintosh Mc2155 that I love. It's signature sound is silky smooth with a great presentation without tyrying my ears. However one thing that I cannot figure out is it's so damn slow. I have listened to other comparable amplifier of similar vintage (ARC, Sansui, Conrad Johnson, Marantz) and they all fail when it compares to sonics but speed wise they blow my MC-2155 out of the water.
Is there something wrong with my amplifier? How do I correct this?
Thanks
