Could you elaborate on the Mac pieces you did not like?  What preamp are you now using?

Remember the old saw about working with a dealer who bashes another company's products.  As I read this I think of the usual "cranky old men talking about their stereos" crowd that could be doing other things like going to live shows, spending time with the family, learning a new skill like a musical instrument or getting some sun instead of carving up each other and the equipment.  Passion doesn't have to be bashin'.

@bigboypete Good on ya man. I ran a 202 for a decade. When you get it serviced there is i believe an effective LED light upgrade kit now, I replaced the burned out lights in mine, fairly easy to do if you are handy w soldering iron.

Enjoy the music !

Why does this video not have any 'Dislikes'? I would think with the number of negative reviews of his views, it would have more than 'zero'. Things that make you go, hmmm.
