Audio Research Ref 3 Preamp + Mcintosh Mc501's
I've finally matched the Ref 3 with Mc501's. I feel they sound incredible and seem to work very well together. I can hear the the high, sweet mid range, the low and spacing between vocal notesHowever, it seems the Mc501's kind of struggle a bit! T...

Rlxl, How did you control the loudness increase? Did you mean reduce the volumn? I feel any preamp needs to be clocked up to a certain point for them to sing best?Thanksprimare_cd31

Parasound A21
Hi All,Can you please let me know if anyone has run the Parasound JC2 preamp with McIntosh MC402 or MC602 or MC501 pair? I've upgraded my speakers to Kef 205/2 and they seem to go well with McIntosh. However, I don't want to change my Parasound Pr...

IMO, If you have a close to fully balance system, good cables and ref. type speakers then i'd say XLR's will do better. RCA's tend to give more artificial sound and narrower sound stage 
Parasound A21
I guess the A21 with 250w/ channel is about enough for my Kef 205/2. However, beside being almost fully balance, the JC1s also have a lots more current then A21 - 60 vs 135 amperes and current = controlI guess JC1s will be my next upgrade! Has any...
