| Any one tries Focal Electra 1027 with Mcintosh amp Oh man, I think that would be an awesome combo. I haven't heard them together but am familiar with all of them. They will play to each others' strengths - which should be the goal in matching amps and speakers. I think you can't go wrong.Arthur | |
| MC402 vs FPB 300cx So strange you find the 402 aggravating and harsh at the same time as relaxed and weighty. I have never heard any amp that was that way. The Mcs I have heard are silky in the midrange and highs - almost too much so for some systems.But also, you h... | |
| Your experience:a cdp that gets best of lesser cds Tvad - ok, now I see that we are on the same page. I figured that had to be since there is no other way. There is no need to ever use the word "colored" since everything is. I just had the impression you were saying I was wrong in making "colored"... | |
| Your experience:a cdp that gets best of lesser cds Tvad - You should avoid making condensending remarks about people's "colored" suggestions when you are guilty of it yourself. You start off by suggesting that anything other than the Modwright is colored and then keep suggesting these tubes to eff... | |
| MC402 vs FPB 300cx The McIntoshes take a very long time to break in. There are a lot of windings in there! You may never get to hear what it is really like since you'll only have it a few days. The treble will loosen up with some more time, so I am told.It is true t... | |
| Your experience:a cdp that gets best of lesser cds Well, I have yet to meet anyone that I feel is qualified to decide what the World's Absolute Audio Reference (WAAR) should be. Who is to say what is right and what is wrong? I believe we have yet to find a system, whether recording or reproducing,... | |
| MC402 vs FPB 300cx Hey, there you go! Testing the amp out in your system is the only way to get a clear answer. Bear in mind that at this level, there aren't any bad amps - it is just that some will work better or worse with your system and tastes.Sounds like you kn... | |
| Lamm, Cary and Parsifal Encore - what combo? I really liked my time with the SLP98 and although it is a bit warm, its transparency is quite good actually. My McIntosh C42 was a bit better in terms of dynamics so I sold the Cary. I think what you are hearing are the slightly restrained dynami... | |
| Does Anyone Bi-Amp With both SS and Tubes? I use a McIntosh MC240 tube amp on top and Kora hybrid monoblocks on the bottom. I am in heaven! See my system page for lots more info. Arthur | |
| Any Can fans out there? Oh yeah! Definately good music. | |
| Best known dimensions for home audio room Read the blurb about room dimensions on Cardas' website. www.cardas.com. That website also has other articles that are all very interesting. After 100s of speaker positions, the golden ratio indeed worked out best in my room so I don't see why it ... | |
| MC402 vs FPB 300cx Since you seem very concerned with bass, you should stick with the Krell. However, if you really want awesome bass, the 804s are not a very good choice to begin with. I have a pair right now and they can't hold a candle to my 926s in bass performa... | |
| Best Pre-Amp/Amp for Focal JMLab electra 920 For the 920s, you need an amp with a smooth top end and enough power to control those big woofers well. If you get an analytical one, you won't enjoy the music. You don't say what your budget is so I will guess based on the used prices of 920s. I ... | |
| Sony SCD-C2000ES vs.222ES, 333ES and 555ES I not familiar with the 2000 but I have a 333ES and I totally agree with Stereophile that it deserves a Class A rating in SACD mode. It really is an impressive format and this player sounds great. It is a 2-channel only version of the 555 and has ... |
