HELP I need alot of audio advice....
My advice to you is to change your CD/DVD player or go CD and DVD player seperately. What accessories do you have like cables and interconnect? What is your budget? Please give more information. 
Has anyone heard of MCS 3245 amplifier?
Thanks maxcast. I was curious about its performance. 
Has anyone heard of MCS 3245 amplifier?

Great Vintage Amps-which one for you?
Thanks for the response Southpark. I went to ebay and they hardly have any vintage ARC. Any opinion on mixing hi-end speakers with vintage amps? Thank and happy listening. :)

Great Vintage Amps-which one for you?
Has anyone tryed to use Dynaudio, B&W, Paradigm, or any hi-end speaker with a vintage amp? If so, how does it sound? What are the advantage and disadvantage? The reason for my concern is that I can not find info on such a match. It would be p... 
Great Vintage Amps-which one for you?
Thanks for the responses. Detlof, I never heard the ARC. How are they? Rar1, the other day I went to a hi-fi store and they had a Marantz power amplifier. The meters looks like the McIntosh ones. To bad he didn't have it plugged in.

Dynaudio and Nikko, a good match?
That was off a 8 ohm load. The Nikko does go down to 4 ohms. 
Dynaudio and Nikko, a good match?
Thanks for the replys. I was looking into either the 42 or 52. You mention that they take power to make them sing. My Titans get loud with the volume dial at 10:00 powered by a Nikko NA-690 Intergrated Amplifier. I measure the SPL at around 100 db. 
What are your "reference" CDs?
Thanks for the replys. Sting does sound compressed, at least to the ear, but in reality if you use an RTA, you will see that the response is balance. The album I use is"The Summmer's tales" track 1 and 6. I know alot of engineers use this CD. Judg...
