| What CDP gets really close to vinyl? Cary SACD with built in DAC that you can use separately with a Synergistic Research Hologram D powercord. You can switch sampeling rates on the fly with the remote. | |
| Dedicated Line ....... my system SUCKS I have the same amps and had 20 foot speaker runs. The amps were heating up (Oscillating) and close to shutting down. I found that the resistance/inductance of the long speaker cables I was using was the problem. Once I changed the cable, and the ... | |
| Amplifier for Magnepan 20.1s I own 20.1's and Bi-amp them with Cary 500MB's momoblocks on the bottom and Cary 120S tube amp on mids and high's. I'm using a Marchand powered crossover to do the bi-amp. Although I'm still dialing in the frequencies, the difference between the p... | |

| VPI 16.5 clamp When I am cleaning records with my VPI 16.5, I have never had an issue with the record slipping so I don't see the need. | |
| Maggie 20.1 and Marchand XM-44 Macdadtexas,If you get a chance, try this crossover. You will be surprised. I'm still experimenting with the plug in frequency modules but the sound is far and above the stock crossovers. | |
| Maggie 20.1 and Marchand XM-44 Macdadtexas,The 120S doesn't have any problem handeling the high end at all. The base I'm hearing out of these 20.1's I did not know exsisted. I've pushed them pretty loud just to see and doesn't seem to be a problem. Beware of all the additional ... | |
| Maggie 20.1 and Marchand XM-44 UPDATE,I received the Marchand crossover yesterday and installed it last night. I am now running a Cary 120S tube amp(EL34) which powers the mid and high frequencies and Cary 500MB monoblocks powering the base of my Magnepan 20.1's. I am shocked a... | |
