Interconnect Help - Recommendation Please
I second the Ridge Street Poiema!!! R-v3 IC's! IMHO, Silver done right!YMMV. 
Sony DVP-NS999-ES Upgrade
The Sony 999ES mod is still available from ModWright. 
Dh-Labs, KCI or Element interconnect
I second the VH Audio Pulsars. Good IC's for relatively little $$$ 
What glue to use on circuit board of Classe amp
You may want to use RTV silicone rubber adhesive / sealant. It will give good adhesion and flexibility. Clear or colored doesn't matter. It can be found at most hardware stores. Good luck 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Hi Jc,I am glad you found the cause of the sibilance in your front end. The experience you had with the Mac MC-402 demo (bright, glaring, sibilant) was puzzling to those of use with this amp. When we change a component in the chain, we tend to loo... 
Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900
Jc........ at least we can agree on one 'Mac'.......your computer of choice. If you are, indeed, an Apple computer user, you can't be ALL BAD! A bit of a ball breaker, but that's OK. I've been using and loving Mac's for 8+ years without a problem.... 
Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900
Jc- As I said in your other "Krell is the Greatest" & "Mac is Crap" thread, because YOU don't like (actually HATED) the MC-402, why are you now taking any and every opportunity to flame those that do? Jc......we get it.........It didn't work i... 
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh?
Hi Jc51373, Yes we all have opinions and we all hear differently. Krell is your amp of choice and McIntosh happens to be mine. Most systems differ in components not to mention room treatments. System synergy is what we're all looking for in this w... 
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh?
Jc51373, You words from your Krell / McIntosh thread on amps/ preamps: "Not to be a complete ball-buster".............. I understand that the MC-402 was not to your liking and it just didn't work in your system, that's fine and you have your opini... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
That's why there's vanilla & chocolate!I have a 'dog in the fight' as I own a MC402 amp. Sharp, rasspy and overly pronounced are not adjectives I would ever use to describe this amp. I too have been through some amps (none were Krell) and whil... 
McIntosh SS Amps - Old vs New - Sonics
Hi Grant,If you hear the 402 please post your impressions. I own the 402 and really like it but would be interested in how it performs in your system. 
Mcintosh MC2000
Hi Rocky,You could give McIntosh a call or an email. (607) 723-3512Good Luck 
Grungebuster mat and Sony 999ES
I have a ModWright 999ES and the Grungebuster 2 CD mat seem to work fine for me. Steve does mention to not leave them on the disc for any extended period in a slot loading player. Perhaps it wasn't pressed down on the edges and it came loose. Was ... 
Best Mcintosh solid-state amp 200-300 watts?
Zikhmark, Thanks for your post and opinion of the various Mac amps you have owned. I had the 7200,7270 and MC-300 on a short list last year when I finally bought the MC-202 amp. I'm glad to have made the jump to the MC-402. It's interesting to not... 
Best Mcintosh solid-state amp 200-300 watts?
I have to agree with Grannyring. The 400 watt MC-402 is an amazing amp. I've only had mine for 12 days and bought it as a local sale here on Audiogon. I have a 200 watt SS Mac (MC-202) which I like very much, but the 402 is just in a different lea...
