VSA VR-3 Upgrades. Has anyone done them? Results?
I became aware of a deficiency in the low mid/ upper bass region. I contacted Albert, convinced that he would blow me off and suggest my room, or something else, was the problem. To the contrary, he validated my observations and explained that the... 
VSA VR-3 Upgrades. Has anyone done them? Results?
@fplanner - Thanks for your comments! That is encouraging. After posting, I decided to give Albert a call and discuss with him why I wanted to upgrade. I was pleasantly surprised to find him completely down-to-earth and extremely informative. We t... 
How to clean and polish MC275?
Thanks all! McIntosh Labs also suggested Windex. It worked great. 
The Beatles Mono Box Set or The Beatles Stereo???
I second the vote for mono. I didn't think I would care for the mono because my introduction to this music was all in stereo. The stereo versions are fun and worth the novelty of hearing some interesting studio experimentation. After a while thoug...

Good speaker match for Mcintosh MC275 IV
Thanks so much for the suggestions! I'll look into all of these. I am still learning about this amp but, it has been a blast already. Still gotta find an affordable preamp,better speakers and cables. I'd love to hear what has worked for others wit...

Speakers to build a $6500 system around
Zu Essence, I've never heard them but with 60 day return policy, I am interested! Shadorne, you are right! I do really like my Energy's. The 4.1e's were made in Canada in the late 80's. They sound great but look like they were made in the late 80'...

Regarding Energy Veritas 1.8, I will definitely keep my eyes open for these. However, you think these can play on par with VR4jr's?
