| Did I screw up??? C2700 vs c49 I had a C2600 and there was no reliability or quality issues. Pick the one you like best and I expect they will both last a long time. I've not heard them back to back - I have heard the C2700 and I do like its performance including its built ... | |
| Just FYI: Tidal is consolidating their HiFi and HiFi Plus tiers @moonwatcher Curiosity killed the cat. I'm very pleased with Tidal. I occasionally find versions and mix change that I'd wish they hadn't. Ultimately my consideration for Deeze, Qobus or Spotify has to do with integration into Room or my stream... | |
| Brigid Monos or Mono Blocks? The M400s were awesome - they were dynamic with clarity and capable of reproducing music with finesse or punch. I think they are excellent value for the price as I compared them to McIntosh and Audio Research. They blew away the McIntosh in my o... | |
| Brigid Monos or Mono Blocks? I'd prefer monos; however it depends on how the equipment is designed. I have used to own Moon's M400 mono blocks and they are excellent. The 330A is a heck of an amp and I chose the M400 versus having to buy 2 Y adapter XLRs. I currently own t... | |
| Just FYI: Tidal is consolidating their HiFi and HiFi Plus tiers I just learned this too. I had the Hi Fi plus subscription so while the are ending the military discount they are also lower the cost of the subscription I had. I'm considering adding a second streaming subscription - Qobuz, Deezer or possibly S... | |
| To loom or not to loom? @audio_is_subjective64 My goal or vision didn't start with a cable loom as an end goal. I did experiment with cables starting with speaker cable. I had several brands and Kimber Kable Bifocal XL was a clear winner. After I realized speaker ca... | |
| To loom or not to loom? @ghdprentice +1, I think it depends. I have Shunyata power and Kimber speaker cables and interconnects. I am very happy with where I am and don't expect to move towards 1 loom. | |
| Are there other people like me ? Amazed by their low cost system :) Gratitude and appreciation is a wonderful place to be. Enjoy the journey. | |
| Let the best be your guide I enjoy the good recordings and if I find something that isn't a good recording, if it's so bad I can't enjoy it I don't play it. I had a guest who really liked Dolly Parton and some of her early songs you can tell the recording is subpar but not... | |
| Opinions on NAD please I have owned NAD Home Theatre Receive (T-765) and an integrated amp (C 375 BEE). I upgraded from a Yamaha home theatre receiver and thought they were outstanding. The NAD home theatre receiver was specifically requested (with incremental cost)... | |
| Looking for integrated solid state amp for daily usage I'd encourage you to listen to Moon's 250i v2. I had a 250i as a loaner for 2 weeks and it sounded a heck of lot better than I expected it would given it was subbing in for 2 400 watt per channel mono-blocks. | |
| Seeking Honest Opinions: Your Experience with McIntosh Audio Gear I've owned the C2600 Pre-amp and MC 302 Amplifier and I enjoyed listening to music at home more than ever (at that point) Sound Quality: It sounded good. I enjoyed the sound immensely and the difference between McIntosh sound and others to me... | |
| Most impactful for playing soft During my journey I've found the better the system the less need to want to play it loud. (85-95 db) and the quieter the music seems because the 'space' is more accurately presented. After getting my system components in place I noticed power ca... | |
| The $10,000 Question I like Sonus fabers and think the Sonetto V is a great value for speakers. Amps there are two companies that make some excellent amps with great value Moon (SS) and Rogue (Tube) Good luck in your journey! | |
| Help me pick some new or used speaker cables There are some great options for speaker cables mentioned - I'd also consider Nordost. I've been very impressed with them as with Transparent. I've been very pleased splitting my cables - Shunyata for power and Kimber for speakers/interconnects... |
