| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw - Delta Time! Just got the 180gram LP last week - gonna wear it out in a week if I'm not careful. | |
| Have you changed your mind about a brand? Was it you, or them? McIntosh. Dreamed about owning a Mc amp/pre and finally after 20+ years got it. Had it 5 years and tried three different speakers and never connected to it, never really enjoyed the sound. Loved the meters..... | |
| What power amp or integrated amp are you using with your Harbeth speakers My current set-up is a Luxman AX590II, full class A with the 30.2's Sure, a little more power would be nice when I'm cranking the Stones at 100db, but I don't do that much and even then, it's an amazing combination. I had them with a McIntosh amp/... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I discovered Jose James. Honest, never heard of him before. Now it’s been 2 hours non-stop discovering his music. A bit more to the R&B side which I never listen too then the blues, which is where I found him. Got a new favorite tonight. | |
| During this isolation, I would be interested in suggestions of great movies you like. @whatjd Perhaps another thread on movies we like and probably shouldn't? The Core - completely ridiculous and I've watched it a dozen times and will do so again. | |
| During this isolation, I would be interested in suggestions of great movies you like. The King of Hearts 1966. | |
| Lexicon RV-6 I Owned a Lexicon MC-12 which I ran with a mcintosh amp. Great sound for movies, great surround-sound. Very poor for just listening to music in stereo. Ran very hot for a pre-amp. Hope this helps a bit. | |
| unbeatable Class A integrated Oh and Class A is not over rated. Blows away every class D I’ve ever heard. Those Luxman 30 watts sound better then the 200 class D I had or previous ones I owned. Your mileage may vary but I am no push over on SQ. | |
| unbeatable Class A integrated Replaced my mcintosh gear with a Luxman 590AXII and it was an incredible improvement. I could not be happier with the sound and the looks. The phono is both MM/MC, using a Hana MM right now and it’s a lovely combination The headphone amp is stunni... | |
| Luxman 509 or McIntosh 8900 Probably too late to add but I lived with a Macintosh amp and preamp for many years, decided to finally upgrade and for various reasons went with the Luxman 590AXII and now wish I had replaced the Mac’s years ago. The Luxman is more detailed, warm... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? MJQ - the complete Atlantic studio recordings | |
| Strange Rivers Now Edcyn, as a certified Deadhead (I.e. attended dozens of concerts and don’t remember much about any of them), California Bloodlines is a great album. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Modern Jazz Quartet. Complete. | |
| WAF -- I have always found a new purse smooths over everything. Especially an LV. And a $2,000 purse is just as justifiable as a $2000.00 interconnect. | |
| Big source improvement using CD player I debated between getting another CD player when mine died and getting a Bluesound Vault. With good advice from a local audio store I went with the bluesound and never looked back. Loaded all my CD’s, buy them for $2 or so when I want something, c... |
