| Audioquest I just listed an 8 foot pair of classic AQ Volcano speaker cables and an 8 foot pair of AQ Caldera here on Audiogon. | |
| McCormack dna1 to Sony 1040 Not aa fan of the Carver. Too busy. Each needless feature is another potential source of trouble. What about this listing on A'Gon?https://www.audiogon.com/listings/tube-golden-tube-audio-sep-1-stereo-tube-preamplifier-3560-2017-08... | |

| McCormack DNA-1 Gold or DNA-225 I have a DNA-1 Deluxe with the SMc Audio Revision A+. At the time, that was the highest level of revision available. I have and continue to revel in the sound of my system with that amp. I don't know that much about the 225, but have no doubt t... | |

| McCormack dna1 to Sony 1040 @OP It may not be what you want to hear but Matt is absolutely right. Consider looking here and at other sites that carry pre-owned gear and try to find a simple tube amp ala cj or the like. | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT @stringreen I bought my Treo CTs from John Rutan at Audio Connection as well. He can really talk audio and knows all about Vandersteen's line. He correctly predicted that I would likely be unhappy with the speaker cables I had been using with my ... | |
| McCormack DNA 500 loud hum I would suggest calling Steve McCormack at SMc Audio at 760-732-0352. Steve upgraded my original DNA-1 Deluxe to an SMc Audio Revision A+. Fantastic amp!I've had occasion to talk to Steve and I think you'll find him helpful and enjoyable to talk... | |
