Shanling T100 to the T200 shootout
I had a Sony 777 and it kept giving me the no disc read out on SACD's and I just finally said bye to it. I still own the 5 disc 333 but rarely use it in SACD. I own the Shanling 100 and an Electrocompaniet as a transport with a Chord DAC 64. The c...

Unless you are willing to commit to SACD than just go for the T100 and get the modified version - it steps things up a great deal. Also the 200 does not decode HDCD if that makes a difference.

Mc Intosh Need The good bad and ugly?? Should i
The 352 will do you just fine with the Genesis but if you are real power monger and have the extra money go bigger and I might add much heavier. 
Mc Intosh Need The good bad and ugly?? Should i

Mc Intosh Need The good bad and ugly?? Should i
I own the 352, 2102 (tube) , 162 amps - also the C2200 tube preamp and the solid state C42 preamp - I also own the 6850 integrated and the oldie 6100 integrated. I love them all and they are all in some system I have around the house and office. T...
