| Loss of bass in Audio research vsi 55 In the VSi-55 you bias the 6550's. Is it possible that one on the other 3 tubes is bad? Have you changed them to different positions? | |
| High Pwr Tube Integrated for Inefficient Speakers? You might think a little more about changing speakers rather than struggling to find a tube amp, if you prefer tubes. | |
| Mastersound Amps. Anything similar you'd recommend I agree with Johnk about the PMC not being the best pairing with Mastersound. I've heard a few Mastersound amps in my system and they are awesome. I can't believe some of them are selling so cheaply on this site.If you like the sound of tubes you ... | |
| Understanding Mcintosh Meters? I had the MA 6450 and the meters come in handy to the extant that you know when you are coming close to overdriving the amp. As far as reading them, the 6450 has an 8 ohm and 4 ohm overlay. You read the top or bottom, depending on the impedance of... | |
| First Trip outside of Best Buy, a real newbie. I don't have anything new to add only that you might consider picking up a used helicopter. An old Agusta or something that's reliable will really expand your search range. The dealer always knows you're serious when you call ahead to arrange a ro... | |
| Avatar SE Tubes Update on the cost. Under $500 is what I am looking at. | |
| Avatar SE Tubes I'm still doing some reading on tubes for this amp. Any opinions on Telefunkin, Amperex 12ax7 or Mazda 12au7 tubes in the Avatar? From what I read these are some brands that might strike a chord. Just curious about who has been down this road befo... | |
| New amp or new cd player? I owned a 6450 for about 1 year. I would suggest some other upgrades to bring your system to a similar component level. While you are doing this get out and listen to some other brands and some tube amps too.The 6450 is good, better for me IMO tha... | |

| Wilson Sophia 2's on Marantz Reference I like nutt'n better than to get down to my yellow tank top and stretch out on the lawn to get some good ear time on my Wilson's. Only thing better is to listen while sippin on a Old Milwaukee that's been coolin in the crawl space and soakin my ba... | |
| Looking for integrated w/ good dynamics kick Sorry in advance:Sim and RW had me listening leastVAC and MAC unleashed the beast.Plinius was good bet never stood the same ground to Mastersound.Listen to many because you will findmost sound like my behind. | |
| Need $1500 integrated amplification suggestions... I have an Avatar SE and have no regrets. It was a clear step up from the Vsi-55 for me. Sometimes I think it has less bass, other times I think the bass quality is just better. It certainly has better clarity, soundstage, and is much more transpar... | |
| $600 +/- Bookshelfs w/ Holographic Soundstage Stick to your budget and stop visiting this site. Don't worry be happy... | |
| Need $1500 integrated amplification suggestions... I've owned the VSi-55 and the RWA Sig 30, not the 30.2. Of these two I liked the ARC better. It had great power, a really deep 3D soundstage and solid build quality. I found with my setup it wasn't as transparent as I wanted--only complaint. Peopl... | |
