| VTL compact 80 amps and 5881 tube vs EL34 tube I would stay away from those amps, VTL's support is horrible for older products. Trust me I learned the hard way. | |
| 1 piece of audio gear I really regret selling is.. KEF RDM 2 speakers, there are many others but I would still be enjoying these in another room had I kept them. | |
| Does anyone or does everyone pay retail price? I've never paid list with one exception, a DAC ordered direct from the manufacturer. | |
| thoughts on NAD M3 I listened to the M3 along with some other int. in that price range and it was tempted to buy one however in the end I spent a little more and got a McCormack amp and pre. If I bought ann int. amp it probably would have been the M3. One of the rea... | |
| What components are manufactured in the U.S.A.? McCormack, Channel Islands Audio, McIntoshUnfortunately a number of Cary's newer "affordable" amps are madein China. PS Audio is now made in China also. | |
| How do we feel about a B&K ST 1400 for $400 ST1400, still too much as they are very similar. | |
| How do we feel about a B&K ST 1400 for $400 Too much money, I picked up a 2140 last year which is much newer than the 140 for $275. | |
| PSB Platinum M2 I have M2s and love them, they are a ridiculously good speaker for the money. I'm using a McCormack DNA 125 which is 125w/8 Ohms and 200w/ 4 Ohms and it drives them cleanly at higher volumes than you are likely to play at with normal listening. Mo... | |
| Preamp match for a McCormack DNA 125 The McCormack RLD 1 is a great preamp that can be found used for short money. I have one with a DNA 125 and it's a great combo. I bought the amp first and used it for a short time with a McIntosh C15 which was nice but the RLD 1 blew it away. The ... | |
| McCormack DNA-125 / Proceed 2 Amp plus? I have a DNA 125 and it's a great amp, I love it. I would be wary of the Proceed, it's old and Harmon Specialty Group charges a ridiculous flat rate for service. | |
| McCormack DNA-125 / Proceed 2 Amp plus? Good advice Jaybo. | |
| Amp recommendation: Cary SS vs. McCormack vs. Ayre I have a RLD 1 and DNA 125 driving PSB M2 Platinums and it's an awesome combo. The M2s are a 4 Ohm speaker and the DNA 125 doesn't even break a sweat. | |
| Budget DAC for Oppo VS. Orig. Rega Planet For some "budget" means $200 - $300 but I believe one of the best "budget" DACs is the Channel Islands Audio VDA 2. I love this DAC, for $599 you'd be hard pressed to find a better sounding or better built DAC. http://tonepublications.com/MAGPDF/T... | |
| Best Micro Speaker? Sunfire CRM 2s sound great. | |
