| Tube rookie needs integrated advice. sonograph separates(used at around one thousand in mint condition) are solid state but their unique design make them very sweet sounding...they are by conrad-johnson and match quite nicely with your speakers.historically their quality and value ar... | |
| I think I want a tube preamp the quad would be a nice pre for tour system, and there seem to be used ones in mint condition for under $600....its a lot more for your money than the minimax in the sound dept. | |
| CJ Premier 17LS vs Sonic Frontier Line 3 i have been a cj fan for years, but the sf lines 3 is a classic pre..i'd get it back. | |
| Advice wanted on mid range setup my comment to the post was not meant to be a knock on analogue....i just know that when you add any front end to your system,(particularly one that is thousands of dollars),its a good idea to listen to it on a trial basis in your own system with a... | |

| Advice wanted on mid range setup this analogue demo you heard(. sme, etc.)is by no means normal.... and basing an important purchase on a chesky audiophile recording is not a good idea, no matter which format sounds better. audition at home before you buy anything! | |

| Audio cables for older McIntosh equipment? van den hul clearwater..its thin,it fits, and it sounds superb(neutral)..oh yeah..its not expensive | |
| Anyone compare Mcintosh MC2102 to new Mcintosh SS? the mac 402 and 602 match nicely with the 2200 pre and although each is a tad less warm, they more than make up for it with more bass control and detail. the 2102 is one of the best tube amps ever made, but i finally settled on the 602 to use ever... | |
| Cremona Auditor, Decappo Or Proac 1sc? the decapo is the best match for your amp..the sf and the proac prefer an amp with more power.all are good speakers. | |
| Which is the best amplication? of the ones mentioned..krell | |
| warm amp ss around 650 i would second the recomendation of the sonographe. | |
| Threshold? these are classic amps, and they produce a huge soundstage. they are arguably more neutral than the pass and forte. the forte is a bit more forgiving on poor recordings but in most ways(open highs and midrange..bass control..pinpoint imaging)all t... |
