Any McIntosh C48 owners out there? Sid42,I saw a C48 listed briefly at a very good price, which was actually less than some C46 preamps offered. Congratulations. I will be interested to hear your evaluation. | |
Any McIntosh C48 owners out there? On the McIntosh forum at audioaficionado.org there are several posts that may be of interest.One post suggests the volume control function of the C42 is unique to that unit."One of the things that frustrated me with the C42 was McIntosh's optical ... | |

Von Schweikert opinion and help. This sounds like a good deal on the VR4 SR MkII. Von Schweikert has just introduced VR-33 speakers with introductory pricing of $3750 per pair. You might consider these as an alternative. More information is available at the Von Schweikert forum o... | |

Cable conundrum: Parasound A21 with RCA AND XLR Milpai,In my home theater system, I use a Parasound C2 controller (yes, I have 2 of these) with Parasound A21 and A51 amps connected with balanced cables.

Making the best of mediocre speakers This may be a dead issue, but I would revisit the question of whether you might find a way to use conventional speakers in the room. I have a pair of Salk SongTower QWT finished in Hawiian Koa wood. My wife, who has rarely seen a speaker that she ... | |
Impossible? Small towers, efficient, musical, loud I suggest you consider Salk SongTowers. I have SongTower speakers in a room as large as yours. They can be placed as close as 12" to the wall without compromising bass. These are fairly efficient speakers with an excellent midrange and sound stage... | |
