| McIntosh MA7000 or MC252? I have been living with the MA7000 for a few months now and have had SO MANY systems in the past. Mostly separates but a few integrateds. I am running mine with Sonus faber Guarneri mementos and a Cary 306 Pro CDP. Amazing goose bump sound and the... | |
| Cary 303/300 vs. 306/200? I HAVE to chime in. The Sony SCD-1 is awful for redbook! The 306/200 will kill it and with todays prices you can get a used 306/200 for about $1400. To this day the 306/200 is one of the best players I have owned, and I now own the 306 Pro. | |
| Any feed back on McIntosh C2300 va Cary Audio slp0 Id go with the Cary. This is from a guy who currently owns MAC and previously owned Cary. | |
| curious about mcintosh ma2275 Funny I have a 2275 and am curious about the SLI80. I just got the 2275 2 months ago and switched from AES Six pacs and AE3 MKII. Seems the AES may have been better with jazz and vocals and the MAC for rock and bass heavy music. I think the SLI 80... | |
| Audio Electronic Supply AES/Cary AE3 MkII preamp I had a DJH and auditioned an AE3- MKII after I sold my DJH. Bottom line..DJH - Very direct, dynamic and has some pop/slam. Soundstage width is sort of small-ish.AE3 MKII - MUCH warmer, fuller and bigger bass. But the bass is a but loose when comp... | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento BTW, with my DJH Pre I am using some very cool POPE tubes from upscale audio. These two tubes transformed this pre in a very good way. Pricey but worth it. | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento The GM's have MUCH more bass than the GH, but the bass in the GM is very very tight and I have no need for a subwoofer in my LARGE room. I have the M's about 3 FT from my back wall, 7FT apart and slightly toed in. They are about 2 1/2 FT from each... | |

| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento I owned the GH's for a long time. Upgraded to the mementos and WOW, the sound is HUGE with the M's. The GHs are way more laid back and no where near as dynamic. the M's still have an amazing midrange but maybe not as syrupy as the GH's. My prefere... | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento's I know this is an older thread, a few months old but I have tried SEVERAL amps with my new Mementos. I ended up with a combo that blows me away everytime I power it up. Cary AES Six Pacs with upgraded capsCary AES DJH signature preampCambridge Aud... | |
| Integrated amp for my Sonus Faber Guarneri Best sound I have ever heard. Cary 805C with Guarneri Homage. I now own the Mementos with a Cary Rocket 88R and in 30W triode they sound phenomenal. | |
| The best mini monitors you have heard? I have owned pretty much every Sonus Faber monitor including the Guarneri Homage and currently own the Guarneri memento's (which I find MUCH better than the H) but one speaker that sticks out as being purely magical is the Merlin TSM-MM I owned ab... |
