Looking for a McIntosh amp that gives a great example of the “McIntosh Sound”
I have had a MC352 and currently use a MC402. I feel the 402 does sound better than the 352. More speed without sacrificing warmth, I talked with 2 dealers about trading up to the new 462 and told the 402 sounds better and has a build quality that... 
This can’t be serious??? Check this out at Dedicated Audio
I think Dan is just keeping his sense of humor active enough to maintain a level of sanity. BUT a one cent discount is incentive to consider….  
Question to those believing in speaker break in
I did this method years ago with Revel Perfoma towers. I placed them about 8” apart and ran them with FM for a couple days at moderate volume stopping only a few hours in the evening when I watched tv. But I recently bought new speakers and just l... 
Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System?
Nope. Most of my friends are not audio lovers and the price would seem too high as most don’t have home audio systems. I have one family member that only cares about price, I never tell him because it drives him nuts. He’s the type that only judge...

New Rega P10 setup
A few years back I traded my LP12 in on the RP10 as the LP12 had run its course with me. I realize the P10 is a different table,but yet very similar. I also have mine on a Symposium Seque Stealth and a Salmander cabinet. My floor is also a suspend... 
Something on top of a speaker=okay?
Best way to know is experimenting. Try with and without and also move it to the other channel. And try different music before you draw a conclusion. In my opinion, yes it will make a difference, but is that difference an improvement? Your ears are... 
In the US, how is your internet connection terminated in the home?
If you are asking how internet service enters the home, we have either phone line delivery or coax cable. The modem does connect via RJ11 then is converted to RJ45 for distribution with either type of service. I can’t tell you which of the 4 condu...
