Cables for McIntosh Equipment
Vx700 - I am going towards an all McIntosh system, and am curious of other McIntosh owners thoughts too. 
Amplifier recommendation for Legacy Focus 20/20
Flyfisher - If you happened to be a little south of home, come on by and listen to my Focus with the McIntosh MC352. My room needs some work acoustically (I am working on that part), but I find the sound to be full and relaxed, not "in-your-face" ... 
what is the sound like on a levinson 336
If you go to the $20K+ forum at AVSForum, there's a guy there in Canada who is demoing a 336 in his system against his 602. Maybe you could pm him about his thoughts. I love my MC 352 and would like to bridge it with a second one, but this other g... 
McIntosh MX119/134/135 pre/pro or Krell HTS 7.1
Aball,Yeah, this really is an illogical silly disease. It seems once I attain my system goals...I still keep thinking "what if change..."If I don't change anything...I should be happy...right. After all, it is just a stereo! What I have is far bet... 
McIntosh MX119
Ron,I just took from your earlier post that there was no volume control for the multichannel input. That is why I posted it.Dave 
Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
For the third time now Luke...I think we get it. 
Anyone heard the Onkyo sp 1000 yet?
Ears (Greg) I wish you would just give this up. The SP1000 is good for the money, but not the giant killer that you claim.For everyone else jumping on Ears's case, I am afraid it is a lost one. My guess is that he will never give up. That is why I... 
McIntosh MC402
Thanks 
McIntosh MC402
Has anyone else compared the MC402 to the MC352? 
McIntosh MX119/134/135 pre/pro or Krell HTS 7.1
Many people think of the Showcase 7.1 instead of the HTS 7.1. I can understand that. The HTS 7.1 has more features than I'd ever use, more I think than the McIntosh. But I am most concerned with the sound. What should one expect from the McIntosh ... 
Jeff Rowland 201 or 501 for high current demands
Thanks Guido,That's relatively close. I'll keep it in mind to pay a visit.Dave 
McIntosh MX119
From my conversation with McIntosh just now, there IS volume control when inputting via the multi-channel analog inputs, but NO processing. The signal remains analog all the way through (aka: pass-through).For all other analog inputs, it is the us... 
Jeff Rowland 201 or 501 for high current demands
Muralman1,That is something to consider (the money back guarantee that is). However, I am not the kind of person that would buy something like this with the intention of returning it. I just need to be comfortable with my decision whatever it migh... 
Jeff Rowland 201 or 501 for high current demands
So what is truly important when evaluating a potential amp...before listening that is?The problem is, you cannot always get different amps connected to your same speakers for evaluation.There is wattage output, voltage output, and amperage output ... 
Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
I used to keep telling my wife I was almost done:Not to long ago she said at me "Aren't you finished with that [the system and the room] yet!?"When I said "No, it will never be done!"She said, "Well I am glad you finally realized that!"Boy...what ...
