| Modern integrated vs. vintage...what do I get? My first vote would be McIntosh. Have the MA6600 and love it. The new line up should fit your needs very well all in all. The Marantz and Luxman line should be on your list. Happy hunting. | |
| Which Power Cord are you using with Parasound A21? Have a Parasound 2125 amp. I use a Iceageaudio power cord. Price well below other cables using the same technology. | |

| Best Speakers You Have Ever Heard In Your Home Without a doubt the pair I have. Going to audio stores from time to time an auditioning others, some very much more than what I have, has made me appreciate my purchase all the more, especially for the price. Well back to more music. | |

| Did you get your new Music Direct catalogue yet? Their catalog are indeed top notch. I have often saved them just because they are so very nice and informative as well. By the by, great outfit to purchase from. | |
| Amp ventilation question Jeff, by the by, I really really like my PM8004. I have a McIntosh MA 6600 and a tube integrated as well. It holds it own very well in the bunch. | |
