Designer Hall of Fame
Based on what I am hearing from a Magtech amp I just purchased from Roger Sanders (owner of Sanders Sound System), I would think that he probably belongs in the Designer Hall of Fame. An incredible sounding amp with power to drive any speaker. I h... 
JRDG Capri vs. Parasound JC-1
The JC-l is a 400 watt pwr amp, not a preamp. The Parasound preamp is a JC-2 which I happen to own. It replaced a McIntosh C-220 and I have never looked back and never been sorry for the change. Associated equipment is a Parasound A-21 power amp, ... 
Mcintosh C28 VS C712 Modern Vs Classic
Stanwall: You asked where I have been? I've been lots of places (Germany 9 years, Iran, Italy, Austria, Turkey, Yugoslavia to name a few places). I am a retired US Army man and have been a music lover since I was 4 or 5 years old. I am 75 years ol... 
Mcintosh C28 VS C712 Modern Vs Classic

Dump run on McIntosh MC402?
In response to Wireless 200's comments. Practically all companies give their dealer a 40% discount. A few are a little less and some have discounts of 50%. It has always been this way, so what is the big fuss. Evidently some people are trying to p...

What Solid State PreAmp?
Hi there again Mikeaudio. The correct model number of the H-Cat preamp is P12RX7. I just noticed on one of your responses that you have a McIntosh MC 402 amp. That's the same amp that I use and I am driving the Duntech Sovereigns. By the way, the ... 
What Solid State PreAmp?
Hi there MIKEAUDIO. Don't know what part of the country you're living in, but you really should try to get access to the H-Cat PR7 preamp (retail list $4995). I have used and owned many of the top-ranked preamps over the years (tube and solid stat...
