| Full tube amp under $1600 You should be able to pick up a used Rogue Cronus Magnum II for around $1600.00 or so. It comes with KT120 tubes @100wpc. | |
| Best Speakers for a MAC M5200 I use a turntable in my listening room with GE Triton Reference speakers in my main rig and I have zero problems. No feedback, no jumping of grooves, etc. I am running a Mac 300wpc power amp. | |
| Any experience with these turntables? Don’t bother with the Garrard. It is a cheap plastic table with an even cheaper plastic arm. I used to sell the Zero100C back in the 70’s. Brand new they were junk, the sliders on the arm jammed up constantly and we got at least half of them ret... | |
| What can I expect to hear from a decent analog FM Tuner? I have a McIntosh tuner in each of my 2 systems and listen to FM radio a lot and mostly because I am lazy. It works for me. | |
| Best Speakers for a MAC M5200 Try one of the GE speakers. I am using GE Triton Ones with a McIntosh MA6600 Integrated (200wpc) In my secondary rig and the sound is to die for. | |
| ISO good quality tube pre-amp There is a Rogue RP3 tube preamp listed here in the classifieds for around 2200-2300.00. I used to own one and it is a very quiet and flexible preamp. | |
| Volti Audio's Razz Affordable Towers I would love to hear them. Perhaps at a future audio show. | |
| Need some Tube and Class A SS Suggestions I would pair a Prima Luna tube amp with a Prima Luna tube preamp. System synergy is key. | |
| Time for the Dynaco to go, Affordable Integrated or Separates for Wilson's Under $2.5K? Get a second hand Parasound Halo Integrated at 160wpc@8 ohms and 240wpc @4 ohms. They can be found for $1500-1800.00. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Kim Simmonds, “The Devil To Pay”Kim Simmonds, Goin Back To The Delta”Great Blues Music. | |
| Magico vs the world @dznutz ,I do not own Magico, never cared for the sound, same goes for Focal. I own GE Triton Reference speakers which are perfect for me in every respect but others may not like them. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Pink Floyd, “DSOTM” MFSL CD | |
| Magico vs the world Dznutz,if you do not like Magico, why did you buy 3 different pairs? Are you a mashocist or something? I would have quit after the first pair. Money to burn? I am really interested in knowing why. | |
| End of the World system If my family was the last on earth, there would be more things to worry about than a stereo. | |
| To horn or not to horn I heard the big JBL’s once, they went for almost 50K for the pair. If I could afford them and had the room to support them, I would have bought them in a heartbeat. Nothing beats the dynamics of good horn speakers, but the good ones are very exp... |
