| Tempted to buy a Macintosh I own a Mac 252 and just love it. Use my B&W 803 D4 speakers and run only digital in this system using a modest Bluesound Node 2i. It sound exceptional in my office. And if you are into the look, it is a look that becomes an art piece. Doe... | |
| Looking for an integrated amp around 4000 to 5000. McIntosh 252. I love that integrated amps sound, and looks. | |
| Question re: DAC with network/streaming capability Just out of curiosity, what didn't you like about the Linn? | |
| Analogue question Recently My turntable was making a similar hum and the meters on my Phono PreAmp were going nuts. Turns out it was the WiFi Satellite that I had placed near my equipment. I had a satellite so that I could plug in Ethernet cables directly and did... | |

| How I spent my time at home Oh, and falling, again, for Pattie Boyd. | |
| How I spent my time at home I love your #6! My issue totally. Cramped spaces and lots of cables! | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst This is the weakest list I have seen in some time. | |
| GNEDBY RIP Look into Jewel Sleeves! They can store CD;s, with their artwork in a fraction of the space. You can even order nice cabinetry to store them in. | |
| MoFi - Are You Kidding Me? @crazyeddy My point exactly. Thanks for reaffirming. I expect more than what I got for the money. And, I never have these issues with Quality Record Pressings. Watch the video a http://www.qualityrecordpressings.com/index.cfm?go=video You... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading I totally sympathize with the OP. Yes, listening to some of my LPs I bought way back in High School and beyond just don't sound very good. So many variables in these pressings. Was the master used? What pressing Plant? reissue based on what so... |
