| mcintosh c2300 I love it...done with preamps. | |
| Mcintosh c2300 preamp tube question Tele's work the best in my system and I have owned and still own 10 other brands. I keep going back to the Tele's. They just do it all right with this preamp. This preamp really shows the character of each tube. Then of course your speakers, room ... | |
| Best Tubes results for McIntosh C2300 I agree 100% Telefunken. Tried several brands, and the Tele's just do everything right, I guess well balanced would be the word. I change but then I keep going back to them. The C2300 is not a McIntosh off old, it is very natural. | |
| Preamp inverts phase question: You can hear if the system phase is inverted at the XLR by pin configuration or the preamp my design is phase inverted, and tube preamps have a history of this and the manufacture notes that in the owner manual. My dealer told me never to switch t... | |
| PS Perfect wave power cord I am going through the burn-in of the AC 12, On my amp it sounds fine but switch it to the source CD or Preamp and like all the above comments the sounds is just weird, mid bass missing, highs sizzle, mids thin and grainy. I have about 30 hours on... | |
| Mcintosh C-2300 first impressions I own the C2300 for several months and over that time I can tell you the tube used will make a big difference. Also the preamp is natural, if your room has issues it will show it, I took down a few wall panels and I was shocked at how much quality... | |
| PC recommendation for McIntosh 501's LessLoss work wonders on my McIntosh MC 402, and C2300, detail, imaging, dynamics, bottom end all improve over the stock cord, and complete absence of noise. | |
| Pangea power cords All power cords are system depended and for that matter any cable regardless of cost. You can read this thread of people who tried the same Pangea AC 9 and both had different results. This is normal for any cable regardless of cost. Though I shoul... | |
| Modwright 36.5 v McIntosh C2300 preamp Like all audio gear you can mix and match but that takes a lot of time and luck. I think Mod Wright with same brand amp is the smart way to go. Having said that I use McIntosh gear so my C2300 makes great music with the McIntosh C2300. The C2300 i... | |
| Review: Porter Ports Hubbell 20 amp wall receptical Tweak These are excellent all the way around. A lot of the big buck ones color the sound by hyping the highs and lows, some will be more forward, but for over all performance the Porters are very very good. Now start working on your room. | |
| Best HDMI Cable for Video I used the Blue Jean HDMI, was very stiff but worked great, my brother needed a HDMI cable so I gave him the Blue Jean, I purchased the new Sony HDMI cable, well made easy to work with, and a great picture and sound. Folks don't blow a lot of mone... | |
| Buy LED, LCD or Plasma The Pioneer Plasma is the way to go if you want real high-end video....cannot find any fault with it, it does everything well, after looking that picture, hard to even think about LCD. | |
| Review: Oyaide R 1 Tweak I had the R1 and loved it for a few months then grew tried of it, hyped up upper mids and highs. I tried the 20A Porter Port and I found it much better across the board and much more real then the R1. I use McIntosh gear so I know that not a forwa... | |
| Dahlquist DQ 10 help. I owned these speakers for years and drove them with a Dynaco stereo 70's with very good results. But with solid state I needed a high current amp. Tubes work well with the DQ10. To save money look for a good high current integrated amp. There are... | |
| Heard McIntosh 275 For The First Time. I just tried 24 Cardas Caps on my total system. I gave them a shot because they are cheap, if no improvement I could use them on my video system. After playing around with them on my cd player, preamp and amp I can say in my case a jaw dropping im... |
