| Bose buys McIntosh @bondmanp The best mfg car stereo I had was an Infinity labeled system in a Chrysler Sebring. I believe what made it sound so good was the room - er, interior. A soft top lowered the noise from bouncing around, and when the rag top was down, the... | |
| Bose buys McIntosh There is little doubt that Bose will use their stellar product management team to find ways to reduce the prices of McIntosh gear. Bose currently uses China, Malaysia, and Mexico to manufacture parts and using parts made abroad to utilize in McI... | |

| Ken Fritz's $1M Dream System update The 1 million system included the room (house addition). To add a room that has such thick custom concrete walls and all the other acoustical details within, you would easily be in the area of $250K in today's dollars. Only going to get a fraction... | |

| Ideas for low cost amplifiers with gain control I ran two pairs of Martin Logan speakers (Motions) for years, each pair powered by individual NAD amplifiers - the NAD C298 and the NAD 275BEE when I last had my basement bar room setup with multiple speakers (for two channel listening). Before ... | |
| HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR SYSTEM IN LESS THAN 30 SECONDS Also a big fan of Dire Straits and Mark's creations due to the fact that there is silence (blackness) between notes and large swings of sound that do no overwhelm the listener, but actually draws you in. IMHO, Money For Nothing deviated a bit from... | |
| Need Opinions for Different Cable Manufacturers/Cable Designs Surprised that no one has even suggested using a McIntosh cable when you are using McIntosh equipment. I use a pair of cables from McIntosh to alleviate some perceived brightness between my preamp and amp. They are readily available on Crutchfield... | |
| Greg Kihn @larsman Yeah, my bad. Growing up in the 80's, I assumed he was from SoCal..for whatever reason. While his music got a fair amount of airplay, there was not a whole lot of ink devoted to him on the east coast. Just for fun, I looked up his conce... | |
| Greg Kihn Was a big fan of Greg Kihn. Kinda odd that a southern California boy wrote a song about a Madison Avenue man, but still know most of the lyrics. Certainly an icon for CA but he was popular in PA back in the day. | |
| Emphasis on stereo but need a complete solution. @moverton99 old thread but don’t forget to use the Yammy controls to match the sensitivity levels of your different manufactured speakers. For instance, if the Totems are rated at 89 dB and the Energy center and surrounds are 91db, then increase t... | |
| NAD Near Future HT Products? Your NAD T753v3 is not Class D, while the T778 is Class D. I have both an NAD 275BEE (Class A/B) and the newer Class D amplifier, NAD C298. The increased power of the Class D amps are notable. While class D is still "musical" as I have found all ... | |
| Upgrade My Turntable - How Much Do I Need to Spend? @lewm Is it possible for you simply to admit you made a few innocent but incorrect claims earlier on in this thread? I’m sure you’re a fine person regardless. I only corrected you so as to help others who may be newbies. | |
| Upgrade My Turntable - How Much Do I Need to Spend? @lewm Mijostyn is correct. The volume is not doubled as you stated. the combined volume will be 21 dB down or double the power, not double the volume. FYI- check your work before posting something that is incorrect. | |
| I want to replace the router/modem Comcast with a high quality for streaming @vandy357 I was on two year contracts for the past 10 years, bee bopping between one or the other because of price. Capitalism was working. Then about two years ago Comcast and Verizon started colluding with one another and the prices were iden... |
