| Headphone amps with remote volume controls Rello, I suppose I could do that but then I would have to turn off the amp. Sounds simple but that word "lazy" factors in on this.ZD542, My understanding is that the HA-1 would be passing the analog in to analog out at the headphone jack. But that... | |
| McIntosh MX-121 won't play mono DTS-HD No, just try unplugging the unit from AC power. Then while it is unplugged press each button on the faceplate, this will drain any stored capacitance.The re-plug the AC cord and see if that fixes your problem. The re-boot of the processors will re... | |
| McIntosh MX-121 won't play mono DTS-HD My first thought is re-boot the 121. Unplug and touch all the buttons on the face plate to discharge any stored capacitance then restart and see if you get different results. If that doesn't do then check the settings on that HDMI input for modes.... | |
| Mcintosh MVP 861 Any of the models mentioned would be sufficient to your stated need. I believe that you may look at the 861 or 871 as I am not sure that the 851 does 1080p, but could be wrong. Those models are basically a Denon at heart that have been "McIntoshed... | |
| Pre Pro And Amplifier Instead Of Receiver Another option to consider; buy the receiver that provides the best bang for your budget. Then in a few years if you have the funds, buy a separate amp and use the receiver as a pre amp. Then if you want, you can have a two channel amp for two cha... | |
| Cheapest good sounding dvd player? If you can find a good used Marantz DV8300, DV8400 or DV9500; Denon DV5900,5910 or any in that series these are good sounding and play SACD and DVD-A as well | |
| Marantz service That is sad to read. About 20 Yrs ago I bought a DV8300 Multi Format Disc Player and had problems with it reading certain SACD discs. I contacted Marantz service and they were great to work with. They bought the same discs and tried them and disco... | |
| Greatest song titles.. Martykl, that is a different song which I think May have inspired Spooky Tooth. It was a different genre more folksy humor. I just remember a friend had it on a 45 and played it all the time, regardless of protests!I did remember the Spooky Tooth ... | |
| Greatest song titles.. "You broke my Heart and I broke your Jaw" Bobby and Sylvia for the 70'sBest album title: "what were once vices are now habits" Doobie Bros. | |
| Most compatible phono pre for Lyra Delos I have a Kleos and have been using a Linto with good success for a few years now. Although I have been thinking it is time for a change. I have thought about the Uphorik but have yet to try one. But considering our similar tastes in music, I think... | |
| Early MOFI vinyl formulation Yes I remember that was not just true of MoFi but also Nautilis and other that claimed to be using "virgin vinyl".Now we get the 180-220gm pressing and they are not transparent and I never see the term "virgin vinyl" used in product description. I... | |
| McIntosh to be on How It's Made this Thursday I was disappointed that they didn't spend more time. But that is the way How It's Made does things. They do a good job with the time they dedicate to the subject, but I would have liked to see more of the assembly process. I think that McIntosh do... | |
| cd/dvd repair ot trash You state that the unit was repaired in the past few months for the same issue. Didn't you get a warranty with that repair? Some repair shops give a 90 day and other 6 months. I would see if they will stand behind their work. | |
| How long before your cartridge warms up? I find that my Kleos always sounds better on the second side of the LP. I usually play an album side while listening to another source before I even listen, so that I can enjoy the full LP. | |
| cardas golden reference sound signature Digital-desire, I can appreciate your desire to maximize performance of any system. But in car audio, I think rather than invest in expensive cables that maybe cable isolation would be a more rewarding investment. With the exposure a car and road ... |
