| Need help in picking a 300w 7channel amp. You might look at the MC207 from Mcintosh. I can tell you from experience that many companys rate their amps as having more power than they really deliver. The Mc has 200 (4 or 8 ohm)per channel which I realize is 100 shy of your indicated 300.But... | |
| What makes a record collection "great"? Who Cares? I buy music I like and I listen to it with no concern of anyone's opinion but mine. It's my sandbox, my rules. | |
| SACD vs RBCD players I would say if you don't have any SACD's now, invest in the better redbook player. I have some SACD's and feel obligated that any player I buy has to SACD compatiable. Avoid the hassles of looking for SACD titles that you want. | |

| Meridian, Ayre, Musical Fidelity, Ayon, Lector $2k I can tell you that the MP upgrade is a marked inprovement of the standard C5xe. I looked at Meridian when buying nthe Ayre and I can't remember the model, well I guess the rest is obvious. | |
| Ayre C-5xe gone wonky You may want to try a full re-boot. I recently had the MP update added to mine and it came back with no digital out. The Ayre service rep walked me through the re-booting of the unit. It is a little involved but if you call them on Tuesday I belei... | |
| It costs me $100 a week to listen to vinyl I would say this is the difference between a hobby and a business. Still cheaper than being married to a trophy wife! | |
| Troubleshooting help Is there a gain setting on the Bat's? On my Audio Research you have lo-med or high gain, any chance that might have been changed, somehow? | |
| What are you using to clean plasma screen? I have an Elite and use the Monster Screen cleaning kit because that is what they carried at the store I bought mine. Some sell the Audioquest kit and that looks to be the very same thing as the Monster and at the same price.Just don't use anythin... | |
| Non-grounded power cables If you have a IEC plug on the component any cord with a IEC plug will work as Albertporter indicates. But if you have the figure 8 type of connector I have found a Cardas cord in Microtwin only that has that connector. Maybe someday all audio/vide... | |
| I Just Don't Hear It - I wish I did I have to agree, over the years I have come to realize thatas an audiophile, I am subject to the power of suggestion.Sometimes the difference is so glaring you can't deny it, but other times especially on higher end cables vs. cables in the same p... | |
| What do you think? Maybe what we need here is for AudioGon to establish a way to imprint the name of the seller on the photos when you post an ad. I really can't see the harm that was done here other than one seller may take the route taken and another may choose no... | |
| Problems with my remote Banged on what the CDP or the remote? Eitherway it's working, that's is a good thing. | |
| Need help finding cause of hum I would say if you haven't tried, see how the cables are oriented between the amp and the speaker. Any power supplys or AC cords near the right and not the left? Also have you checked the pre to amp cable routing? Another switch I would try is Pre... | |
