I actually pre... | |

| Are you troubled by the imaging of a symphony orchestra? One of the reasons I have wheels on my heavy speakers is so I can adjust toe-in, for single listener, for wider center for 2 listeners, content with too much separation, or content with not enough separation.I also chose a cartridge with both wide... | |
| Are you troubled by the imaging of a symphony orchestra? Large Jazz BandI saw the Hot Sardines live, wide stage, trumpet far left (behind the christmas tree actually), horns moving in, bass, drums, to piano far right. Up front, tap dancer left of center, singer right of center. bought this album, awesom... | |
| Front ported or sealed monitors for shop I would avoid ports in a space with dust. weatherproof outdoor speakers might be the best choice. 7' ceiling is low. Hung ceiling? You might consider 4 or 6 ceiling mounted speakers, it's about content, not imaging. Think long, you can start wit... | |
| Mcintosh MX-120 any opinions or advice? Never saw or heard one, It sure seems to be a great choice."For those who want the utility of a home theater but will accept no sacrifice in two-channel performance, McIntosh has released their MX-120 AV preamplifier". https://hometheaterreview.co... | |

| Russian Tube Preamp, No Return, Here I go again teo-audioI am sorry for my initial response, I forget everyone doesn't know my sense of humor, and also forget that English is not many member's primary language.

| Tube phono pre amp or Tube preamp + SS phono I absolutely love my McIntosh Tube Tuner/Preamp, mx110z, it has 2 MM phono inputs that sound terrific, and you could use your existing phono stage thru any input. I use SUT for MC to keep using the mx110z's phono stage.They have gotten more expens... | |
