| McIntosh c2700 users please chime in? I read reviews of the c2600 at the time and both the DAC and phono got really nice reviews. If I got the 2700, I would compare the built in phono with my current outboard ELAC PPA-2 and go with the one that sounds best. Getting rid of a couple box... | |

| Who has a McIntosh C70 anniversary preamp? Thoughts? Im now favoring the 2700 | |
| Short List of Amps I prefer over the Pass Labs XA25 or INT 25 RalphHow about the Benchmark ABH2 design. I believe its a unique design with very low distortion? | |
| Low output gain amplifier for ZU 101db Efficient speakers I’m actually quite happy with the first watt. Thanks for all the suggestions | |
| Who has a McIntosh C70 anniversary preamp? Thoughts? Yes I did. The BHK blows away the RP5. I'm also considering the c2700 as well. I like the fact the dac module is upgradable and I can make more shelf space (no external dac). I dumped Tidal and only stream Qobuz and my massive ripped CD, DSD and S... | |
| Considering A SS amplifier The 4365's deserve big honkin solid state amps IMO. Just for giggles, you could buy one of the high powered Crown amps off Amazon on the cheap and see if that is more your taste. Then you can go after a higher end that is similar. I'm thinking one... | |
| Last Preamp? Could The Search Finally Be Over? I bet it was Keith...LOL | |
| New tube preamp One more thing. Have you tried running your system without a pre (maybe thru your DAC, etc) and see what kind of sound you are getting? I'm just not certain switching Pre amps at the price level of BHK will provide jaw dropping differences. You al... | |
| New tube preamp Any updates on your journey for a new Preamp? | |
| Disappointing vinyl purchase Get use to finding poor pressings. Or even poorly mastered pressings. Pretty normal back in the day as well since nobody really had anything to compare to. | |
| Frustrated with Vinly Vinyl.....High expectations.....mostly disappointing.Digital....A decent dynamic listening experience that if you get it right "Jams"better than vinyl.A fantastic mastered 24/96 or 24/192 file, imo, probably gets you the closest to what is heard i... | |
| Low output gain amplifier for ZU 101db Efficient speakers Almost 2-1/2 years later:1. I ditched the Rogue RP-5 in favor of a BHK Pre (PSAudio). The difference was major. The pre was quieter with my old NuForce amp.2. I sold the NuForce and purchased a Firstwatt j2. This amp is beautiful and will run you ... | |
| What is the appeal of the Denon 103 cartridges? Thanks. Currently I'm enjoying my AT VM540ML. Tracks nice and a good general "all arounder". I play everything from 40's 50's Jazz-Big Band, Classical and 50's-90's classic rock. Vintage records that are not in perfect shape play great. I have bee... | |
| Selling a very rare album Bootlegs are best sold on fan sites of the actual artist. I would find Jethro Tull fan forums and go from there. Back in the day, Elvis Presley bootlegs were popular. Now that RCA has released everything under the son, including many soundboard re... |
