| integrated amp recommendation needed I second the Yamaha, perhaps the A-S1000(or A-S801) which can be found new at a friendly price. Quite powerful, smooth sounding, nice features plus excellent build quality. Just one of many options out there... | |
| Which amplifier (integrated) would you recommend for Monitor Audio PL speakers I'll make it quick, a Rega Elex R might help immensely. You have lots of good advise above to consider as well. | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Nice! My studio type apt. won't really accommodate the larger Tritons and for the the 3's are great. I'm not dissatisfied with the 3.2, just thought something different might be fun. I had a higher end MuFi years ago (I forget the model) and reall... | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Thanks devilboy. That's what I was curious about. Hopefully, I can demo one soon... | |
| Most Beautiful Receiver / Integrated - Ever was... ? McIntosh does it for me, I still have a pristine Marantz 2325 receiver that is real eye candy as well and tactile feel that is hard to match. | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Thanks for the sage advice everyone. Seems I would need to drop some $$ to have a qualitative improvement over the MuFi at this point....Hmmm. | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Thanks all. Most think the Marantz is more of a lateral move versus a true upgrade. I have contemplated the Rega Elicit now as well... | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Thanks again guys. Interconnects are Blue Jean cables and speaker cable are Spelt Anti-Cables. I never bought in to the exotic stuff, I sense some snake oil with some of the claims... | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... chayro, you may very well be right and I will take your advice into consideration. As 90% of my listening is still via cd, an upgrade in source may be the best medicine. I thank you for chiming in!' | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Thanks guys for the recent comments, all will be considered strongly. Found a place a little over an hour's drive away who has Rogue gear. That's a start I guess...The MuFi is a nice amp just getting a bit long in tooth... | |
| Integrated Amp Upgrade-itis hitting.... Thanks guys for the input! | |
| Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil Not sure I can help with the cable issue but I can sell you magic tweezers to make your cd's sound better. Wait! I have a green magic pen for the cd's too! Got you covered...Save your $$ and apply it to something qualitative please... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations with Magnepan .7s I owned the .7's and loved them, just couldn't do them justice in my small place. Anyway, I used the Anti-Cables and found them just fine. I have also used Blue Jean Cables with pleasing results. Personally, I feel that there is a lot of, let's sa... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Enjoying Allman Brothers first album on 180 gram vinyl but cd (digital) vs. analog (vinyl) is still not settled for me... | |
| What are some of the downsides of owning a Magneplanar .7 or 1.7i ? Let me preface my comments by saying I have owned Triton 7's and 3's. Magnepan MMG's, MG12', 1.6's and most recently .7's (my favorite). Planers and box speakers are apples and oranges in some ways and neither is superior to the other IMHO. First,... |
