| Lamm Pre to McIntosh Amp Yes, I have a Lamm LL2 delux and a pair of Mcintosh Mc-3500Works perfectWhat Mac amp are you looking to use with the Lamm?The Lamm will drive just about any amp. This pre is one of the best out there. | |
| McIntosh amp opinions? Have the tech go completly thruogh your mc225. Upgrade all the caps you'll be very happy with the results. I have two mc225's that are restored. I run them in mono and that brings them to a new level. | |
| What to clean audio equipment with? I use Pledge and a very soft fiber towel for waxing a car. A little goes a long way. Doent harm silcsceening and works geat on chrome. You only need a little otherwise you end up wiping more than you need to for picking up the excess | |
| Herbie Hancock, River: The Joni Letters I think it a very "involved" album both on a sonic level the selection of tracks and the way they are arranged. I can see and hear the amount of time and work it took to compose this album. For me Its a type of disc that will only be listened too ... | |

| McIntosh MC225 questions I don't own any new production tubes. Always been happy with old stock used or new The NOS 7591 tubes will last a lifetime just as long as they are biased properly. | |
