| VPI Nomad Setup Questions plus I am cleaning, sorting and grad8ng 4k classical lp's so best not to test rkun them with expensive table. Audio Desk Pro does decent job. | |
| VPI Nomad Setup Questions Thanks I decided to use the Feickert and adjust accordingly. I found in the VPI manual for the Traveler that the pivot to spindle is 235mm so feel better about trusting the Feickert protractor.The Nomad has a built in amplifier and may be the cul... | |
| The best sounding FM Tuner is..... I agree a modded MR78 is about as good as it gets, especially with proper high end antenna. Was lucky enough to side by side the 71, 77, and 78. All modded and the 71 had 3k in vintage tubes. Preferred the 78 for classical FM best but the 71 was b... | |
| How do you drive 12 Ohm speakers? Need a high damping factor, McIntosh will not do. | |
| Amp for Thiel CS6 I agree, Sheri was very open and while would not critique my choice she clearly stated they preferred BAT power. I happen to power with McIntosh 1201's with great success, of course had quality gear to accompany them. Placement can vary greatly in... | |
| Kudos to Audio Research The more reason to pick a quality manufacturer. I have email Krell for help on a amplifier and no response. Writing is on the wall there in my book, hunting for AR's as we speak. | |
| Mcintosh front glass - touching up the paint For the record the problem was/is with the adhesive that was used on the foam liner and tape to install the glass. It actually seeps and delaminates the glass backing and causes the "bubbling" often seen on McIntosh gear. And yes, it has been corr... | |
| Upgrade Thiel CS3.6 to CS6?? Mark, Where were you, at D edwards showroom?The Music Fidelity was also the wrong amplifier for the CS6's anyhow so you were wasting your time.Good Luck, | |
| Upgrade Thiel CS3.6 to CS6?? I think the problem here is that Thiel CS6 and up are not your average speaker. They require very high output amps to even come close to understanding what performance exists. A quick store demo with these level speakers not paired to the right am... | |

| Wadia 861 Owners... I personally feel that any signal loss from using the Wadia direct/volume control issues is reasonably equivalent to any affects of the preamp insertion. This is assuming the use of a decent preamp of course. McIntosh has a tone bypass so only the... | |
| Thiel 7.2: amps suggestions please Luke72, I find your experience intriguing, I am not familiar with your amps. Perhaps some others can also verify your take that the 7.2's are considerable more difficult to drive, I can't speak on that as I have not owned them, yet. To my knowledg... | |
| Thiel 7.2: amps suggestions please I only have the 6's but they require similar power and Mcintosh 1201's just make the grade. There is an awful awakening around 3-400 watts into an absolute treasure of sound. If you are in or near NY you are welcome to audition. I am sure you are ... | |
| Wadia 861 Owners... Islandear,Mopar works for me. I am running the Wadia 27i/270 through a Mcintosh C2200 (mullard 10m's) and into Mcintosh 1201's. Speakers are Thiel CS6. The Wadia direct was great but I was able to lay back the soundstage of the Thiel's by using th... |
