Here’s my $1750…just tell me what to buy..

my old adcom gfa 555II died. I’m still using my old B&W 804 Matrix and I think I just fixed my old Lexicon DC-1, so….

someone just tell me what to do….my ADD is breaking up my marriage, as Ive been at dozens of sites, read hundreds of posts, which are just confusing me..

I’d like to buy a 5 channel amp as my rear speakers are CDM-1 from B&W ( yeah, theyre old too!)

I spend all day in the Operating Room, doing surgery, and I’d love to have someone else make a decision for me for a change..

thanks

There's a McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe Revision Gold currently up for sale that I would give very serious consideration. I have been using one for the past 15 years and have been very happy with it. It has been incredibly reliable, has great sound and sound staging and has been driving my Thiel 3.6's with ease. I actually think the seller is undervaluing the amp.

The McCormack is a great amp and the added advantage of having a great servicing and upgrading route via the original designer/builder @ SMcAudio.

okay..i bought the emotiva and set it up last night.

the center channel on my system is now dead..using a lexicon dc-1 as processor...when i switch the bal to nonbal on the amp, it shorts out the amp...when i run the diagnostic from the processor, the center is dead...maybe i need to post in a different thread now

I'd call the manufacturer and see if they can help you troubleshoot.

Yeah, step 1 should always be calling the manufacturer. They will be much more helpful than us on the threads.
