Linn LP12 vs Thoren TD350
I would stay with the LP12 and look at investing in upgrades to it. Such as Cirkus bearing, trampoline, keel etc. Even a dealer tune up can do wonders if it hasn't been done in a while. I have a LP12 and a year ago wanted to "upgrade" or get somet... 
Best "Wish You Were Here"
What ever happened the re-issues that were to follow the SACD and Re-master of DSOTM? I had understood at that time the WYWH was to be coming out in a 5.1 SACD and A re-mastered vinyl. I guess the loss of interest on the SACD format may have kille... 
Replacing light bulb McInthosh 2125
I will save you the trouble. I have never replaced bulbs on your model, but if you can order bulbs and a service manual from mcintosh parts. Bulbs are about 1.00 each and the manuals are 10-15.00. Although the manual does note address the replacem... 
wich speaker go wich mark levinson 331 thank you
Revel Speakers are designed using Mark levinson as front end. that might be a place to start. Which model will depend on budget. I own the Perform series and am very happy with the sound. 
What tables will you be looking At?
I am wanting to get a better look at Avid Diva as one. And of course anything else that is there. 
Best audiophile multichannel SACD player
Depends on the budget. Start with Denon 5910ci, Then Ecsoteric DV60 on up through their line. Linn Akutarte, Mcintosh has a few it really depned on your budget? 
Cd player not working without remote
Sounds like it just may have a short in the processor loop. But NAD will have to search it out. Or, just one more question before you box it up. Is it a 2 or 3 prong AC plug? If it is a 2 prong, then you may be to blame here. I have a high static ... 
Cd player not working without remote
So you gained the "on" button working where it hadn't been?Do I understand you correctly? But if the rest is still not functioning I am afraid the unit has a deeper problem.Did you pull the cover and check connections? And before you get to involv... 
Cd player not working without remote
In addition to MoFi's advice I would add that when you unplug it. Press all the buttons on the front of the player. Sometimes there is stroed capacitance in the unit and the processor cannot free itself of all stored memeory unless there is a comp... 
Rolling Stone top 100 Guitarists - Howe/Van Halen
Again ratings prove to be no more than opinions of whoever is writing the article. Howe is a top 10 to say the least.If they are talking talent and ability to make a guitar sound like no other then where is Bruce Cockburn? And Knopfler at 27 as me... 
Mcintosh Volume control acting erratic
I don't think the modem is the culprit here. Mcintech has the best advice. 
Need cartridge advice for an LP12
I am using an Troika on my table. You will find that Linn Carts sound best on Linn tables. In my opinion the Lyra carts are the runner up for compatibility with Linn Lp12 and Linto. 
How many sets of speaker cable?
One other consideration here is, the amplifier section. Does the Marantz amplifier sound better as a selected A or B or will the performance be comprimised when running both at the same time. You may already have made that comparision but it may a... 
Mcintosh Volume control acting erratic
Depending on how many compnents you want to program into a remote I have the marantz RC1400 and love it. I had the RC2000mkII and that was good but not enough memory. But I run my whole system 9 componnents with this little remote and a couple of ... 
Mcintosh Volume control acting erratic
Have you tried unplugging the unit and resetting the pre-amp? Since it has a micro-processor in the volume control,it may have had some brain flatulence and just needs a re-bbot. If that doesn't do it call Chuck Hinton at Mcintosh if anything they...
