Conrad Johnson vs. McIntosh Tube Gear
THIS MC 275 AND C2200 IS A JOKE FOR HALF THE PRICE OR LESS YOU COULD GET A MC 225 AND A MAC MX 110Z IT IS TWICE THE SOUND TRUST ME YOU WILL FLIP OUT HOW MUCH BETTER IT SOUNDS. 2 STARS VS 5 STARS NO JOKE. 
Mcintosh mc 225 vs Marantz model 2's
I MUST SAY AFTER LISTENING TO THE 8B I AM VERY IMPRESSED. THE 225 IS A LITTLE WELL ALOT MORE HOLOGRAPHIC AND THE TIMBRE IS SLIGHTLY BETTER. ALSO THE INSRUMENTS ARE MUCH MORE OUT FRONT AS ARE THE VOLCALS. BOTH ARE ARE 5 STARS. WITH OUT A DOUBT THEY... 
Mcintosh mc 225 vs Marantz model 2's
I've compared the 225 too a Marantz 8b. many audiophiles state the Marantz model 9's are close to the model 2's. And many will say that the 8b sounds better than the 9's.The 225 with these mods is a far better sounding amp than the 8b in my opinio... 
McIntosh MC-275, MX-110 preamp and La Scala's??
Gee I've heard my buddy's so called C2200 side by side with my MX110z. My Mx110z was twice as good. The C2200 was not even close. My buddy was in shock when he heard how my MX110z just blew away his expensive pretty new mac. 
Mcintosh MC275 vs Marantz 8/8b
MC 275 ranks 3rd or 4th in Mcintosh tube amplifier line up. # 1 buy far is the MC 225 ***** STARS. # 2 MC 240 ***1/2 STARS # 3 MC 30's barely *** stars # 4 MC 275 *** stars. More power does not mean better sound.This is my opinion of coarse. Every... 
fisher 400-cx-2 pre amp what is the market like?
WELL I DONT KNOW ABOUT THE TUNER BUT THE PREAMP IS EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS A MARANTZ 7C. SHOULD BRING 2,500,00 OR SO. WILL NEED TO BE RESTORED WITH A REFURBISH KIT. IVE HAD ONE . THEY ARE FANTASTIC PREAMPLIFIERS. MCINTOSH MX 110Z IS JUST AS GOOD LESS... 
Mcintosh mc 225 vs Marantz model 2's
Did not care for the Electro Harmonics Timbre wasnot very good at all IMO. Good Vocals though.Lows were also pretty decent. Sold them after 1 week.I would never use them after listening to the westinghouse.twice the sound!!!! 
Mcintosh mc 225 vs Marantz model 2's
But have you switched the 12au7 to 6cg7 & used sylvania Gold brand Gold pin 5751? This puts this amplifier in a hole different level It will be 25% better.Which is huge!!! Let me know. I would like to here your thoughts on that. I will have mi... 
Character of the McIntosh MX110 Preamplifier
Also really like the Tung Sol. They are smoother than the RCA. kind of in the middle of the Siemens and the rca. 
Mcintosh mc 225 vs Marantz model 2's
Thanks for your responce Al. I have been listening to my 225 for about two weeks now. It is freakin amazing. I have only switched the 12ax7 to sylvania gold brand gold pin so far and it sounds fantastic. I will chime in and let you no how the rca ...
