How to remove McIntosh glass faceplate?
I agree with Mcintech. There are no instructions on disassembly, but as mentioned the exploded view of the chassis provides a layering of how it is assembled. That was how I always accessed the plate and light bulbs on the various Mc gear I have o... 
How to remove McIntosh glass faceplate?
I haven't ever removed a faceplate on a 2125 but have on other pieces and once you remove the faceplate frame from the chassis it comes off fairly easy. You may contact McIntosh service and inquire if they offer a re-printing/screening service for... 
Repair or Replace - Marantz CD63se
OK so I carry the one and take away the 6 , yep that's 16!Either way at 16yrs the Marantz has provided more than your initial investment. I'd go new and never look back. 
Repair or Replace - Marantz CD63se

Should I fix my plasma?
Your local dealer should be able to explain the differences better than we can here online. But in short the more you spend the better the display a better screen, a better power supply, a better processor. All resulting in a better picture. Also ...

No love. Why?
As long as you are happy with the sound that is all that matters. There will always be a better sounding system. And there are many many many people that will tell you that you need to do this or that. That makes them feel better about their own s... 
Storm Sandy - best wishes
Be safe to all in the path. It is a tragedy indeed to have time off work and no electricity to listen to music. But be safe and prepared. 
Acoustics and chair
I have a leather chair the back is fairly low. But most of the time I sit on the edge and forward so the chair doesn't really effect the sound. However at times I lay back in the chair and my ears are below the seatback. It does effect the sound, ...

Bluedeni, sorry I hadn't looked at ths thread in a few days. What happens when you remove all the anti-skate?I remeber when I set mine on the P25 I removed the mat and used the glass platter and adjusted the antiskate based upon arm movement rathe... 
Anyone hear the new Thiel 2.7 speakers at RMAF?
Sorry but I don't for sure. I saw so many rooms and my venture this year was to hear speakers, and some turntables. And after so many room s and a couple weeks, certain details fade into the abyss of darkness AKA memory.But I do remember the speak... 
Anyone hear the new Thiel 2.7 speakers at RMAF?
Yes I listened to them twice and felt they had a lot of potential. Denver Audio Designs had the room sounding quite good. I may audition them again someday at their store to get a better grip on their performance, in a better controlled enviroment...
