| Pre Amp Question. Old or New? To OP, just be aware that member “Ghdprentice“ is a huge ARC fan so his comments mostly lean towards that brand. I owned version 1 of the Rogue RP5 preamp and found it quite neutral which wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted the rich tube sound which ... | |
| For Those Who Are Unaware of The Cable Company I just received a new Acrolink interconnect from them, brand new. Wait time was 6-7 weeks. The importer of Acrolink is a real sh**head, he sat on my order for weeks but Steve at the Cable Co stayed on him and he finally checked his stock and shi... | |

| Aleph 3 safe to operate? If the amp is brand new, there is no reason to use a variance, just turn it on and enjoy it. Variance really not needed for a brand new item and the amp is not really that old to begin with. | |
| Picking a power amp A McIntosh amp would be a perfect match for your McIntosh tuner/preamp. | |
| Anybody ever dealt with Safe and Sound audio @muggyjones1234 , I believe they didn’t charge you sales tax because they do not do enough business in your particular state to warrant it. Happened to me a couple of times when ordering audio online and that was the explanation. | |
| Initial Impressions Shure V15xMR w Jico SAS Stylus @neonknight, if interested in selling the Shure/Jico, send me a PM. I collect and use them. | |
| Acrolink 7N-DA6300IV Mexcel Interconnects I own 4 Acrolink Cables but not the one you are asking about. All of them are built very well, are not delicate and the connectors are very robust and high end. I love Acrolink cables. I waited over 6 weeks for my recently received newest Acrolin... | |
| Von Schweikert Outstanding customer support @corelli , I had the VR33 speakers for about a year and spoke to Albert 3 times regarding the bass problem. He was always extremely nice and very helpful. I sold the speakers within the year as I could never get satisfactory bass in my room. | |
| So what series are you WATCHING now? @gkelly, I also have Earth Abides and Under the Dome which I haven't watched yet. My wife dislikes all Sci Fi. I am looking forward to Season 5 of For all Mankind and the new Star Trek series Starfleet Academy. There is also some kind of Alien ... | |
| Schiit Lokius 6 band equalizer - in use observations I bought one 2 years ago and use it in my office system. It is used in conjunction with a McIntosh MA 6600 integrated, JBL L100 Classic speakers and a single SVS 2000 Pro, ported subwoofer. Just a few minor tweaks here and there got me exactly wh... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Yes, too many to list but anything Rap, I will not bother with, same thing for Pop music. | |
| So what series are you WATCHING now? Just downloaded all seasons of “Better call Saul”. Will be watching it after we finish season 4 and 5 of Fargo. Before that we watched all seasons of “Breaking Bad”. I already have seasons 1 and 2 of Silo downloaded but will watch it on my comp... | |
| Anybody ever dealt with Safe and Sound audio I purchased a Parasound Halo integrated amp back in 2016. I believe they are in Chicopee, MA. I got a great price and they were very welcoming. When I was there, the sound room was undergoing a renovation. I came very close to buying a pair of ... | |
| is McIntosh known for good dynamics? @magon, Look in the owners manual, there may be a way to defeat it. |
