| Mc 240 vs. Prima Luna Klipsch speakers and McIntosh amps are a fantastic pair. I say go for the MC240 and run them mono. I run my 275's mono and love them. | |
| Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks? I think the problem lies with humans speaking without thinking. | |
| Listening to music I don’t particularly like Not at all. If I don’t like the music it doesn’t get played on my system. | |
| New Kid on the Block The WiFi gives them headaches? Interesting. | |
| McIntosh C12000 What else is needed? | |
| Audiophile virtues Why is there always this obsession to develop an analytical approach to enjoying art? Why can't you just enjoy the beauty of the art without trying to smash it into a bunch of invidiual components that are no longer art? The system isn't the music... | |
| Is advice from a constant upgrader to be avoided Great post. I do understand your hesitation to ignore people that seem to never find happiness with what they own. Perhaps to them the chase is more important than the capture? I try to read everyone’s post on certain topics because I don’t have a... | |
| Adding an ignore list feature to audiogon Am I the only one the finds the arguments entertaining? I also remember being taught that "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me". I guess the age of the internet crusades has reversed that old saying. | |

For me it has been a combination of what type room I am setting my system up for (now or in the future) and if my music genre preferences have shifted. My previous systems started to struggle due to either room volume/shape as a resulting of movin... | |
| If a " system " cannot do this, I move on........ Great post. Horns plus tubes equals bliss (to me). Once I heard this combination I knew I was done looking for a system that works with the music I like. Some people are audiophiles because of the cool gear. Some people are audiophiles because ... | |
| Wilson not delivering speakers as scheduled That’s good to know. A friend of mine owns the Alexia Series 2 speakers. His audio dealer said the series 3 should be introduced soon and if he wants to upgrade to get his name on the list now. Sounds like the dealer has been told it will be a lon... | |
| Purple Quantum Fuses really? Apparently there are a lot of audiophiles that only listen to their equipment and not the music. There is a distinct difference between the two activities. | |
| Why the hate for mcintosh amps? @james633 It’s priced way out of my league also. However, I find it interesting McIntosh seems more focused on tube amps these days. Interesting new tube amps being introduced. | |
