| Ayre V5xe I would say that it is a greta amp for the price. I tried one in my home while my McIntosh was servicing my MC352 about a year ago. Unfortunately I was loand a new one and it wasn't broke in. I found it a little edgy for my system. I really do wan... | |
| Power Conditioners Suited to Digital Front End If you want to spend the money try Running Springs. I have a Jaco and replaced a Monster and can only say I think I am done with that end of my system. | |
| McIntosh MC252 vs. MC352 As Klipschfan and Bob point out the major difference it the quad balancing on the 352 actually Mcintosh called it double balanced at that time but the same circuitry. I have had a 352 for about 3 or 4 years now and love mine.Sometimes I think abou... | |
| How do you pay? Why? I have always been satisfied with Money Orders or Cashiers Check depending on amount of transaction. Some have accepted personnal checks and I didn't mind waiting for it to clear. I have never been burned her on AudioGon, most everyone I talk with... | |
| bi wiring Well Jason after all of this I hope that you will share your experinces with bi-wiring pos or neg. Also let us know what speakers, wire and amp you use. Always good to have some input for or against. | |
| How loud do you listen to your music? Depends on the day, the music and the mood. Some music just sounds better loud. I usually make those short sessions though. No ear ringing for me. | |
| Spare change on a speaker cabinet This reminds me of the Totem Beak if any one recalls. Totem speakers had an option call the "beak" which was a machined aluminum cone that had a center cavity in the base. They swore that if you placed on top of the speaker cabinet it did some "ma... | |
| Mcintosh,Meridian,Anthem,Classe surround sound I have owned A bunch of McIntosh C39,MX130,MX132,MX134 and now the MX135 and if you want good two channel and surround in one I would say the MX134 or 135 are good choices. I see them here on AudioGon for that 4500-5000 price range. The 135 of cou... | |
| bi wiring I can only add that I am confused that speaker cable companies would take the time and effort to produce cables that employ different metalurgy and guages of wire in one cable run, if they didn't believe it could make a difference in frequency and... | |
| bi wiring In case you want your question answered and don't want to do the research, I will attempt to give my definition based upon my understanding of Bi-Wiring. I must preface this with a sincere appology to all experts that will undoubtedly find source ... | |
| Easiest to use Processor I have the McIntosh MX135 and find that once it is set I can easily make adjustmenst to sub/cntr/surroun with the trim adjustments. And when ever it cycles on/off it restores the setting I have set as default. But for each movie he can adjsut the ... | |
| Looking For A Vinyl Setup I would start with Rega. There are multiple tweeks and upgrades available and many for sale here on AG. | |
| Satellite vs. Cable I have had DTV for 9+ yrs and have very few problems. They have been quick to resolve any issues. I had cable at another residence fro at least 12 yrs and had many problems. The only advantage I can see with cable is that if you have multiple sets... | |
| Best sounding phono preamp under $600 Find a used Linn Linto. | |
| Marantz vs. Denon? My experience is that Mmarnatz usually sounds a little better until you get to the higher end. Then Denon seems to invest more, it's funny cuz their both owned by the same corp. McIntosh is owned by them as well and they sound even better. |
