| tube preamp used with HT I'm using a McIntosh C-2200 with HT pass thru and very happy with the unit especially in 2 channel. | |
| Mcintosh C-2200 or Aesthetix Calypso? Don't underestimate the importance of a good preamp. I personally like tubes in my Preamp and a SS Amp. To me, it is the most musical dynamic sound. This combo has worked for me with 801N. I also like the way McIntosh mates with B&W. If I was ... | |
| Mcintosh C-2200 or Aesthetix Calypso? Hi, I see you decided to change preamps. Good decision! You've narrowed it down to the same two that I did. As you may remember from your CD player thread, I have the C2200 and I am very happy with the choice. I've heard the Calypso is warmer. Sin... | |
| Which player has all this???? Velo62 blams your B&W 800Ns for the grainy & weak bass, Although, I don't remember you complaining about weak bass. I have B&W 801Ns and I have never experienced weak bass. Notwithstanding, I suspect it is the synergy between your comp... | |
| McIntosh C2200 w/ solid state amp? I use the Mac C2200 tube preamp with the MC402. They make beautiful music together. I strongly agree with Valleyplastic. A definite keeper! Tube sweetness along with solid-state crunch. As far as I am concerned, the best of both worlds. Go and lis... | |

| Cables for B&W Nautilus 802 Louis, I have N801s and use Nordost Blue Heaven interconnects and PS Audio Xtreme Biwire speaker cables with good results. Nordost Blue Heaven Biwire speaker cables should work as well. I suggest you contact Steve at the Cable Company. He's very h... | |
| Power cord with a Mcintosh MC402 Hi Dave, I use a VH Audio Flavor 4 with Furutech FL-25 Gold. Its really opens up the sound while maintaining the sweetness. The one caution I discovered with this AMP is that it does not like power conditioners. It needs to be feed directly from t... | |
| Move to NYC Apt -- Vandersteen 3A Speaker Woes Invest in a real good pair of head phones. Otherwise, you'll be evicted. Good luck! Manhattan is alot of fun. | |
