| Preamp or CD Player for Best Sonic Improvement Are you planning on using the Mac C2200 with the amp of the 6900? I own a C2200 and a C42 preamp. The 42 will never make it back into the main system again. The 2200 is a gem. The 6900 has I believe the 42 preamp and the 202 amp in its integrated ... | |
| New Fleetwood Mac album, any opinions? I agree with Rockvirgo that this CD is lackluster. It is really a Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham combo-solo effort -(but with bad songs) - much like the last couple of Crosby, Stills and Nash discs. Mostly solo efforts on one disc. Christine ... | |
| Phono Stage to replace Sonic Frontiers Phono 1 The Plinius M 14 is among the best you will get and can sometimes be had for 1500 or close to it. Retails for 3495 or so - It kills all mentioned. The EAR with Telefunken Falcon tubes will demolish the Phono 1. Sorry but have owned both - still ha... | |
| Phono Stage to replace Sonic Frontiers Phono 1 Check into the EAR units. | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC1 vs. Shanling T200 Lvl 1 Mod If you are headed for the SACD format in the future than the Shanling is your only choice between these two. Do not get the Shanling without the upgrades. I own the EMC 1 up and the Shanling 100 - the Shanling looks great and sounds good. The EMC ... | |
| WHICH IS BETTER? Ditto on Tireguy's suggestion. | |
| Best relatively Compact Speakers in $2000 range?? Maybe the Red Rose. | |
| 8 Time Grammy Award Winner? For Real? Just goes to show you how boring it is in new music today. | |
| Best Integrated amp for under 4k The MCINTOSH 6900 OR SOMETHING BY ACCUPHASE. | |
| Interconnect for Mcintosh MC352 and C42 I use the LAT International between my C42 and 2102 and also between my C2200 and 352. with great results. | |
| Active vs. Passive Step-Up Devices You need a lot of gain for that output cartridge. If you already have a mm phono input than a passive device into it will produce less noise for the MC cartridge. The Quicksilver or EAR would be good choices - the EAR has a more versatile setting ... | |
| No signal lock on my new used Adcom DAC Depending on the length of cable or even not for that reason but some transports do not put out strong enough signals to clock in to certain DACS and need a booster hooked up between them . I have experienced this with my Kora on some transports. ... | |
| Adcom ACE 515 or PS Audio Ultimate Outlet? The ultimate outlet will probably not help you much - it is not really a high end piece. The PS 300 is a different story. It will enhance your sound more than you could realize. I went from a 300 to an Exact Power combo and really was amazed at th... | |
| Novice attempting to bi-amp. Help With a decibel meter from Radio Shack. Send music or tones through each amp and get a reading. Set the level controls on the amp so they match the output for the tones on each amp. Make sure everything is the same - that is same tones and same dis... | |
| Shanling T100 to the T200 shootout The only way SACD will make it or any format is if all discs are issued in this format and that they are all hybrid at the same cost as regular redbooks. This way all players could be made with the SACD capability in the future and at all price po... |
