Scams on Audiogon (McIntosh Amps)
It will show up in a week, about 5 bucks cheaper 😉 Well the ad has been suspended. I guess someone thought it was suspicious enough.  
Scams on Audiogon (McIntosh Amps)
@roxy54 that’s what I thought too but these ads show up with the same price point (he dropped it 10 bucks now) and then gets removed a few hours later. This is the 5 or 6th time I’m seeing this show up. Even the description is very generic (copy p... 
McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer
I’m not sure if this follow up video by OCD Mike’s friend and fellow Audiogon contributor was posted.      
Bought powerful/expensive Amp+Speakers but plan to use an old preamp , am I crazy?
@mulveling and @tunehead - that;s how I see it. Not going to spend big to get a "complete" system but over time I can see myself doing that. I can see that the NAD is not in the league of the other systems in my chain so its an interim step in the...

Just came back to this discussion after many days, nice to see this reassurance! :) @harrylavo and @grossman616  - that's exactly my thought process! @fatdaddy2 - 😁 @sokogear - the NAD has a great MM and MC phono stage (adjustable for low and h...

I’m afraid to ask but what’s GTG?  
Parasound P6 Volume control increments.
I missed adding that in my pre-amp, I dont get any discernible advantage when using the balanced output. The RCA sounds better and I tried 3 different set of cables. I am using an A21+ that was purchased new with the P6. Is anyone else experiencin... 
Parasound P6 Volume control increments.
I came here searching for the exact same issue with my Parasound P6. The volume is "low" until I crank it up to the 70's or thereabouts! I am glad I am not the only one with this question/confusion...I may be selling the P6 since its a little too ...
