| Philippines, November Hifi Show 2012 I also go there about three times a year, I'm currently a member of the LA/Orange County Audio Assosiation and I would like to join or attend your club. I will probably be going with my cousin Raymund Marave if you know him. He is also a big audio... | |
| Vandersteen 2ce Sig II Update: I replaced my two MC2100 with a pair of McIntosh MC601 monoblock (600w) first 200 hours was tap at 8ohm then switched to 4ohms. I could not hear any difference maybe due to McIntosh being an autoformer. Does this sound about right? | |
| How does Vandersteen 2CE Sig II compare to Treo? Johnny, I really did not notice any difference between the 8 ohms and the 4 ohms tap, maybe because of the McIntosh amp autoformer, doesn't matter which tap you use it will always put out the same wattage. The best thing I can do is to just to mat... | |
| How does Vandersteen 2CE Sig II compare to Treo? Not sure about the TREO but, I have the 2 CE Sig II that are being driven by my McIntosh MC601 monoblock (600 watts) and it just blows away on some of the speakers that cost four, five times the cost. The sound staging, transparency, and the clari... | |
| Vandersteen 2ce Sig II Update: I replaced my two McIntosh MC2100 (220 watts mono) to a pair of brand new McIntosh MC601 monoblock (600 watts). First two hundred hours my 2CE Sig II was at 8 ohms tap then now, moved it to 4 ohms tap. I have not notice much difference yet... | |
| Clayton M300 or Mcintosh MC601 I believe Mac has an edge in sound as well. | |
| Lyra and VPI Scout I don't know if it's the Lyra cart but it doesn't seems to have good bass, mids and highs are like realistically crystal clear but my low end are kind of weak. Maybe it's just me or should I try the Benz? | |
| Lyra and VPI Scout Just about 3 months ago, I abought a used VPI Scout that has a Lyra Argo cart on the tone arm. I might say the sound quality is superb and as an Oppo bdp 95 owner, the VPI Scout is much clearer sounding than my Oppo. But of course I'm using my McI... | |
| Pre/Amp/Int for Vandersteen 2ce Sig II for +/-$3k UPDATE: Well, I did finally got a pair of the McIntosh MC601 (600watts), running balance between amp and tube pre amp and balance between Oppo bdp95 and tube pre amp. I must say, I have never been so happy and overwhelm, these amps is truly a tube... | |
| Clayton M300 or Mcintosh MC601 MC601 are very much tube like amp, quad balance, and has a built in power guard. | |
| Crystal Clear Cables Phillyb, Please let us know how the MO sounds on your system. I connected my Magnum Opus between my MC601s and my C2300 Pre. and loving every moment. | |
| Subtantial improvement over Emotiva XPA-1's? I vote for the McIntosh MC601 monoblocks, regardless of what type, brand, or spec speaker you have, the MC601 will bring out the best out of the speakers you have. | |
| Crystal Clear Cables Mel is now putting together a pair of Magnum Opus XLR cables for my new McIntosh power amp. | |
| Audioquest King Cobra or Wireworld Equinox 6 Has anyone compared the King Cobra to the old MIT MI-330 inter connect? | |
| Crystal Clear Cables I have one of their master class XLR and I must say it's one of the best I have used. Prior to the Crystal clear, I was using the AudioQuest and MIT but not anymore. |
