| Looking to replace my (Mcintosh) Jeff, I feel somewhat qualified to answer as I have owned a mac 7100, and I am a fellow Jeff. I actually miss the punchy lively sound of my old 7100, I ran it with a ARC LS1 and into some Thiel 2.2s, I have fond memories of that system. Anyway tha... | |
| Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K) I know eveyone and every room is different, however if you can dedicate a space to the speakers, and provide proper amplification I dont understand how you could go wrong with magnepans. The secret to making maggies work is placing them litterally... | |
| Quicksilver preamp 1 channel noise Czarivey, thanks for the advice! Have done a limited search for schematic snd found none. I did replace diodes even though they tested good on my meter. If its not the the remaining resistors maybe its the damn socket itself, but resistance wise i... | |
| Looking to build a system for under $5k I would go ice based integrated 250 watt drives most any speaker choose your brand. So maybe $1750 for the integratedThen 1.5k for some used floor standing speakers would probably do some Paradigm studio 100 or old bw or kef or a perfect condition... | |
| Quicksilver preamp 1 channel noise Czarivey, I dont know if they are bad? Because i dont have a schematic i have to remove each resistor and test then cross refrence as they are 6 band precision type. I wish i had a tracker tester. I then order the same value 1% at highest dissipat... | |
| Quicksilver preamp 1 channel noise Everyone thanks for the suggestions! I have 7 more resistors to replace and then I will have replaced all resistors. I will replace those in the next week or two and then the socket on that channel. The thing that gets me is that I have already re... | |
| Quicksilver preamp 1 channel noise Thanks ghosthouse, i guess i will be contacting quicksilver. I will need to take a detailed pic of the unit and detail all of the components i have changed out. | |

| Anyone tried changing OPAMPS in Music Hall A25.2? Sorry have to make a correction the original opamps were OPA2134 not OPA134 as I stated above and they are duals. I guess some op amps are singles like the OPA627 and OPA637. If you need to use these you have to have what I believe are called daug... | |
| Alternative to Plinius 9200 Rowland / Krell / Levinson / PS Audio Gain CellsGood luck you are playing in deep water! | |
| Good amp for 110 sq. ft. room / PSB alpha monitors I would try an old Creek 4330SE, wonderful sounding integrated. I think better than NAD.Just my 2 cents | |
| Looking for $500 integrated amp to match B&W685 You could get the creek 50I integrated that is listed right now. (I am not the lister) but I have thought about buying it. I love creek gear it just sounds right! Even their old stuff 4330 especially se versions. Jolida stuff is worth a look. Or m... | |

| Review: Magnepan MMG Speaker The only thing that I can add is the maggies do their best when pulled away from room boundries I feel at least 8 feet off a rear wall and 5 feet from the sides. The driver element/panel is adversly effected by the reflection of the low frequency ... | |
