| Magnepan .7 slight bulging line in lower front Yes, call Magnepan. They have excellent people on hand to help customers.I really don't recommend taking a heat gun to a newly acquired Maggie... try explaining that if it needs warranty work! | |
| I DON'T GET IT!!!!!! I have a Node 2i. I've used RCA out to a preamp and also used coax and optical out to an external DAC. No settings changes were required. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Very nice, lively recording, but the UK Ebay seller was a bit overly generous with his rating. Still, most enjoyable.Looks pristine. But all kinds of snap, crackle, pop from beginning to end.May have to break down and get a serious vinyl cleaner o... | |
