| Original vs. imitation ; MC275 vs. Cayin A88T You have to roll the small signal tubes. That is where you are missing it. They are the most important, not the output tubes. The stock tubes are terrible. You will notice a huge difference. You rolled the wrong tubes for detail. The output tubes ... | |
| Elvis Presley Fans? I just picked a Japanese Vinyl Box set called For Elvis, for Japanese Fans Only, many of his live recording mixed in with old hits on Japanese vinyl remastered. Sounds fantastic! | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System lol. I usually have to listen to cables for a while and then i start to hear the differences. Sometimes, it is night and day. | |
| Heard McIntosh 275 For The First Time. It is actually a Class A performer according to Stereophile last I heard | |
| more mcintosh questions I have to laugh every time I read that Mcintosh is 2 dimensional. Recently, I heard Mcintosh tubes and the new Quads in a "Reference" setup. It was one of the most 3 dimensional systems I have ever heard and I have heard enough to know the differe... | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System has anyone ever used pure silver inteconnects? | |
| Heard McIntosh 275 For The First Time. Ryder, I feel that your assessment of the 275 is quite accurate. Everything you said I find to be true and I love every minute of it | |
| Audio Research Amp Shootout Actually, I use my mc275 with the Merlins. I used the 100.2 with B&W Matrix 805's. I just got the Merlins. | |
| Audio Research Amp Shootout I also have the 100.2. it is a wonderful amp. | |
| Mcintosh C220 vs CJ ET-2 i used to have an audio research preamp and now I have the Mcintosh c220. I also have a MC275 and I listen to my music a lot. Today for over 8 hours of non fatiging bliss. When I had Audio Research and Levinson, this never happened. Th Mac stuff m... | |
| Heard McIntosh 275 For The First Time. musicnoise might be on to something. THe best I have heard was a Mac Quad combo. Amazing. I have heard many systems with Atmasphere, other OTL amps, solid state, push pull tube and solid atate designs and even though most are out of my price range... | |
| CD Player Under $1.5k With Vinyl Sound IMHO there is no way digital can come close to vinyl and the way the vinyl can reproduce the low level detail in a recording. I have heard some very good digital front ends and they do not sound like vinyl, ever. They may sound good, but not like ... | |
| Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps Kate Bush, awesome. Classical Elizabeth Harwood Handel's Messiah SirMalcolm Sargent Chesky Release, great Soprano | |
| CD Player Under $1.5k With Vinyl Sound I agree with audiofeil. It does not exist. I use an old Cal CL15. It sounds great. I usually listen to it only as a warm up. When my system warms up, then I listen to vinyl and in the near future open reel. Maybe if you take your CDs and tape them... | |
| California Audio Labs Icon Mk II; NOT POWERBOSS I have a CAL CL15 and recently had a Marantz KI Pearl home for an audition. To make a long story short, I put the KI Pearl back in the box fairly quickly. The CL 15 is that good, to my ears at least. They have a sound that is hard to find these da... |
