| Audio Research DSI 200 integrated amp Regarding my warranty, I just checked with MF's North America sales manager and he indicated that years 2 through 5 of my M6PRE/M6PRX warranty are covered by Tempo, not Musical Fidelity. Thankfully my MF components are working just fine, but going... | |
| Audio Research DSI 200 integrated amp Fishing, if you decide to go with MF and you buy new, dont get sucked into paying full list price. You should be able to negotiate a discounted sales price on MF M6 components. Id say at least 15% off and possibly more. Second, whether you buy n... | |
| Audio Research DSI 200 integrated amp Hi Fishing ... If my ear is within one foot of the Musical Fidelity M6PRX power amp, I can hear a hum. This hum is inaudible to my ears if I am any further than one foot away from the amp; therefore, I consider it to be irrelevant to normal listen... | |
| Audio Research DSI 200 integrated amp As to sound characteristics of the four brands noted, my general impression is that McIntosh would tend to lean a bit warm, ARC the most neutral, and Musical Fidelity and Bryston would tend to lean a bit bright.As to features, if you want both a h... | |
| 802 diamonds with class d amp I can relate. It is incredible how much relief and joy can result from a simple repositioning of speakers. I suspect though that an amplification upgrade would still produce further easily perceptible and significant improvement. Either way, happy... | |
| 802 diamonds with class d amp With the B&W and Musical Fidelity components that I'm using and given their price points, soundstage width and depth is acceptable but definitely not exceptional. For me, the ability to reproduce the sound of different instruments with realism... | |
| 802 diamonds with class d amp I can't speak to class D amp options having no familiarity with them. I have B&W 804 Diamonds (the current 2nd gen) and use Musical Fidelity's M6PRE (class A) and M6PRX (class A/B, 260w dual mono) which pair nicely with 804 Diamonds and didn't... | |
| Well-produced recent jazz cd's - recommendations? I recently picked up a CD by Anat Cohen, who is mentioned above by Tomcy6. I bought her 2012 release "Claroscuro", which is my first exposure to her. The Claroscuro CD is fantastic. It has an unusually appealing selection of tunes, all wonderfully... | |
| Well-produced recent jazz cd's - recommendations? Any Patricia Barber CD ... For my money, she's the reigning gold standard in both jazz creativity and production values, in a class of one. But (there's always a but)... her recent release "Smash" is not the best example of her work IMHO. I like m... | |

| Downloading & Converting Music I googled 'lossless downloads' and found the following link to a list of such sites: http://www.head-fi.org/t/558074/where-to-download-lossless-musicI know nothing about the sites listed. | |
| I'm lost...Recommendation for an amp/receiver? The Crutchfield website will give you a pretty good idea of the new A/V receivers that are available in your price range. For used, obviously you can check out the classifieds here on Audiogon, but the offerings are likely to be few. | |
| Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" drove me insane almost You are definitely not alone. In fact, welcome to the club!I'd be willing to bet that Kind of Blue, regardless of the specific release, has led more people to question either their equipment, their hearing, or their sanity than any other jazz reco... | |
| B&W 803D and Parasound Can you clarify something? B&W models are often confused because of the stupid way in which the company named them. I believe the 803D (which has a diamond tweeter) came on the market around 2005 whereas the 803 Diamond (the current model whic... | |
