| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR That video on the manufacturing of the MC275 kind of disappointed me. It seems like McIntosh is cutting some corners in making these tube amps. Definitely not the quality of the McIntosh I was familiar with. I now am thinking of going with the Wye... | |
| What is the difference between McIntosh MC275 That's perfect. Thanks Jond - much appreciated. | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR Atmasphere:Can you tell me where in Canada I can demo your amps? I live in BC but I also travel quite frequently to Calgary, AB. Well made amps. | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR Pani wrote "...had a McIntosh C275 for demo at home and I realized that these speakers sound so clean and dynamic that any amount of power can be consumed unknowingly."Pani - can you give me your impression on the MC275 you demoed? I stopped into ... | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR S1nn3r - Those are some nice looking amps. Have you tried other Manleys with your Kensingtons? | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR Thanks Pani. I will check out the Naim Nait 5i. I have also been looking at McIntosh amps. It seems like they are a good match with Tannoys. I have read several positive comments from Tannoy users who are using McIntosh solid state and tube amps. | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR I refer to Bryston because I have owned many in the past and I can get a used 3B ST for under $800. That gives me a great amp for a backup and until I find a great tube amp for these speakers. I have to admit I am a little disappointed in the low ... | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR So if a good solid state amp would work well would a Bryston 3B SST be a good match? They are plentiful and affordable. | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR Mattam:Do your LE Turnberry's use the pepperpot tweeters and are the speakers any more efficient than the normal Turnberry's? Would love to hear other Tannoy Turnberry GR or Stirling GR owners chime in here. | |
| Amplifier for Tannoy Turnberry GR Thanks guys. Yes I am leaning very much towards the Onyx mono blocks. They seem like very capable amps at a decent price. | |
| Doge 9 listening experience... The Doge 8 preamplifier I purchased cost me $1399 in U.S. Dollars or about $1800 Canadian. However, it blows away the bryston BP-25 I was using and is much better than other preamps I have used or heard including anything by Sonic Frontiers and th... | |
| Doge 9 listening experience... Thinman:I own a pair of Magnepan 3.6 and use a Doge 8 with a Bryston 14B ST. I am thinking of going the Doge 9 route as I absolutely love the Doge 8. You mentioned you did not like the Maggie's / Doge 9 combination. Can you expand on that? Cheers, | |
| Pre-amp for Magnepan 3.6 and Bryston 14B Does anyone else out there have any advice or experience on this topic? I know there are a lot of Bryston and Magnepan users out there. | |
| Wyetech or Coincident Frankenstein IIs Thanks for the replies. Sounds like Wyetech Onyx are not the best match. My big concern is that I avoid an amp that results in speaker hum as the Unos can amplify any noise. Has anyone tried the Coincidents, Topaz or Sapphires on speakers that are... | |
| Best tube amp s for magnepan 3.6r Yesfan:Are you still satisfied with your choice of amp for your maggies? I have a pair of 3.5s and I find my Bryston 3b SST is underpowered. I was going to go Bryston 7B SST but have heard they may be a bit dry for this speaker. The VTL was on my ... |
