Amp to drive Focal Kanta 3
I heard the Naim at the axpona convention hooked up to the Focal Grand Utopia’s. Though, I wish I had the remote to play the music I like at the volume I want to hear. However, I’m committed to saving up for The McIntosh mc462 or 611’s, just recen... 
Amp to drive Focal Kanta 3
I definitely appreciate all the input on my question. I’m looking forward to listening to the mc302 at home for a week or 2 before I make that decision. The price for it is perfect for me now or it would take me at least a year to save up cash to ...

@stereo5.I just happen to come across a chance to own a McIntosh mc302. I’ve been saving for a mc462 or possibly a pair of mc611’s. I already have the McIntosh c2700 tube preamp with Kanta 3’s. What is your opinion on the 302?thank you.Jim 
Why is there no love for Prima Luna?
It’s all good. As long as you’re listening to music. Doesn’t matter what you have as long as you’re happy with what you hear and not comparing to the next person’s stuff.

I’m very happy with the phono section of the McIntosh C2700. I stopped using my musical surroundings phono stage to my older tube preamp. I like that you can have 2 record players with two different cartridges hooked up to the Mac. I like to use m...

@ stereo5, not much off. Probably same as anyone else. I feel that the sound is as good as I’m going to get for what I have. 2 years ago  I remember shaking my head at a McIntosh dealer thinking a waste of money, Three weeks ago at a different ste...

I just ordered  a new Macintosh C2700 tube preamp 1 week ago. I demoed the stereo store’s model for a week with my audio system in my home and made my decision to end the preamp search.Next on the list is to pick a McIntosh amp to go with it. 
Tempted to buy a Macintosh
daeone, I’m glad you mentioned it, I just demoed the C 2700 for one week and went back to the stereo store and ordered one. It sounded great even with my old amp hooked up to it. I am looking forward to trying out those 611’s someday.
