| Mt First McIntosh I’m 68 and got for my first mac. A mac 352 hybrid. I have 3 other amps and they are very good, but there is something about this mac that makes it hard for me to take. It our of my rotation. I sometimes forget how good it sounds until I change it ... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Swede, believe it or not my 380 is surprisingly very dynamic. I have only been playing it 2 days and it went through a few changes. At first listen the bass was so strong one of my speakers popped. The next day, after a few hours, the bass was so ... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Funny, I have been at this hobby since I was 12 and I’m 68 now. Younger I loved the upfront treble sound. Now that I have been at this for awhile I enjoy the warm laid back sound. This Accuphase 380 seems to be dead center of warm and upfront pres... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Bluorion, I have never heard a Luxman. It was on my list to purchase one, I have no doubt that it is a great sounding amp. | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Swede, it has been awhile since I have listen to my Pass. I have purchased my other 3 amps this year, so I have been putting time on them. Once I am done listening to my Accuphase, my Pass is next up in my rotation. From memory the Pass sound bigg... | |
| Good old days rvpiano, I can relate. When you read reviews, a good sound system is supposed to have a wide soundstage, depth, layering, etc. So when we listen to our own systems we tend to listen for those things, cause we get programmed to do so. However, we d... | |
| For an integrated Mcintosh MA-352 amp, CHOICE OF TUBES I also own and Mac 352 and I find that the stock tubes sound best in my setup. I tried mullards{new stock} and found they did not sound as good to my ears as shock. There was more and stronger bass, but sounded congested compared to stock. It coul... | |
| What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest? NHT 3.3 | |
| Integrated amp recommendation I don’t think there were any bad choices mentioned. Other than power requirements, equipment is so subjective. I had a hard time deciding on an integrated, and ended up buying all 3 of my choices. It was just too hard to decide. I ended up with a ... | |
| A warning about hd tracks i deal with HD tracks regularly. A couple of times I have had dnl issues, but they quickly responded to my emails and took care of any issues. Most of my download issues where on my end. I download the downloader app each time I purchase a file. | |
| Warm and accurate bookshelves that can handle volume Dynaudio territory | |
| Speakers matching Pas INT 60 I have owned the Pass 60 and now the 250. Im in a small 12x14 room and I like the dynaudio flavor with Pass. Might want to check that out as well. I have never tried any BW floor standers, but the bookshelps I have tried were a bit too bright for ... | |
| Schiit Lokius anyone? I have the Loki max. I just love it. I use to be a purist, but know more. I particularly, like to bass boast when listing at low levels. The fact that I can make changes from my chair is a huge plus. I even like the Loki better that the tone contr... | |
| Esoteric A100 Service Nightmare You might consider Pass labs for amplification. Excellent service department with very good communication. | |
| Looking for a good small subwoofer... Not cheap, but the B&W DB3is excellent. Very musical. |
