| solid state pre amp with maultipal sub out? The McIntosh C45 has 2 channel and 6 channel outputs allowing you to combine subs full range from both channels simutaneously or left and right individually, balanced or unbalanced. I'm using it with one sub and can control the subs volume from th... | |
| Mcintosh MVP871 vs Krell SACD I have heard this about the MCD201 before. I own one and it has never failed or created noise. As for the original question...do you need DVD? Do you like McIntosh? If yes then get a McIntosh SACD player. If the older versions are not what you wan... | |
| Has anybody heard the new Mcintosh MC302/MC452? Mc has published a magazine ad for the C50 and MC452 but have not included these products on their website at this time! I doubt they are shipping. | |
| Mcintosh MVP871 vs Krell SACD Your really asking about two different kinds of sound. I've owned two complete systems, one Mc one Krell. Both are great with the Mc more tuneful and Krell more complete. I found myself turning the volume down on the Krell and up on the Mc. All th... | |
| Clearaudio Emotion CMP/Maestro combo I have similar problems with auditioning. The Emotion has gotten great reviews. I have the CA Champion Level 2 that I bought without audition 8 years ago, no regrets. I did buy the Maestro and thought it was a great pickup. In my system I prefered... | |
| Rack : I need your help Go to Mapleshaderecords.com. They use air dried ambrosia maple for their stands. They will build to your specifications and up to 4" thick. You can check my system page first if you want to see their products before going to the website. Since you... | |
| Is rack between speakers always less than ideal? I have used the advice from the Mapleshade website on system set-up and have been well pleased with the results. Pierre Sprey is my set-up guru and his recomendations are: very short interconnects and at least 8 foot speaker cables. I have my rack... | |
| Need Coaching re: Maggies & Subs Martykl, I applaud your solution. I originally bought the MMG straight from the factory and loved them. I only changed to the MG12 because I could take advantage of the factory sponsored full-trade in offer. Being able to go from 3.5 to MMG with D... | |
| How necessary is a zerostat gun? I have the Ionoclast and use it regularly on vinyl and cd/sacd/dvd-v and dvd-a. Since you can hold a cd in your hand while using the Ionoclast it is possible to feel the difference in static release. It makes the whole front end smoother and it ma... | |
| First tube integrated amp If you like or are willing to try vintage gear there is a McIntosh MA230 for sale on Agon for $750 obo and it has a MM phono board as well. It produces 30 watts which would make your 88 to 90db sensitive speakers boogie. You can buy a new cabinet ... | |
| Need Coaching re: Maggies & Subs I used Maggie MG12 with the Velodyne DD-10 sub and Mc MC-352 that made a great system. My Living/listening room is 22 x 20 and open at the side and back so IMHO you might find the 1.7 a little much for your dedicated room since maggies need volume... | |
| What subwoofer for Joseph Audio RM25si I can only speak about what I use. The Velodyne DD series will accomplish what you want to do. They have RCA out and will turn on and off based on whether or not a signal is being received. Other features are a remote control and DSP room equaliza... | |
| Sealed vs Ported Subwoofers My current subwoofer is sealed and is used in my music system. I've used ported in a home theater system. What I believe to be more useful in integrating a subwoofer is getting a digital sound processing sub that allows room equalization. And just... | |
| Amp for Harbeth 7ES3 You should seriously consider Racamuti's advice and go with the DeHavilland amp if you want to keep your present preamp. Best synergy is achieved that way. | |
| McIntosh C42 volume control questions. You want your volume control to be at least at 1/2 (50% or at 12:00 o'clock) to have enough adjustment for minute adjustments in volume from the remote control. If you have maximum listening volume at 25% or 9:00 o'clock just one change up or down... |
