| Pre + phono under $2500? McIntosh c220 - Great preamp. It might be right around the $2500 | |
| Is MOFI L. Ronstadt Prisoner in Disguise better? I have some of the older ones from the 80's and they are decent, obviously going downhill from then | |
| Is MOFI L. Ronstadt Prisoner in Disguise better? It just sounds horrible. It is not better at all. The voices are clearer and there is more focus on the original. The drums go deeper. It is just much better on the original. I guess I am just disappointed because I was expecting great things. | |
| McIntosh MC 275 Mk IV or V with Harbeth M-40.1? You are right Toetap, some of us like the way real music sounds, and the 275 reproduces music in a more realistc and enjoyable fashion than any amplifier I have heard regardless of cost. Unfortunately, for me, it took many years and many lessons b... | |

| Focal Mini Utopia vs Merlin MXe The ARC 100.2 sounds good with my TSM's. It is a great amp that can be found on the gon used for between 1500 and 1700. Years ago I had Pass ALeph and the 100.2 was more to my liking. | |
| Granite under wood for better isolation? I may give that a try. I did try the granite under the MDF and still prefer the MDF alone so far. | |
| Mcintosh C-2300 first impressions It does not matter if they are Tele's, Mullards, or any NOS tube will probably be a noticible improvement. It is all about voicing to your tastes. The Tele's are pretty neutral. They are very easy to like for the most part. I like them. | |
| Mcintosh C-2300 first impressions I thought I preferred the stock tubes until I put the Teles in. I was blown away. Everybody is different so you never know. Sounds like it is breaking in. | |
| Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Perfect Wave? I read it can play Hybrid SACD. I thought I read it could not play standard SACD's. | |
| Mcintosh C-2300 first impressions The 2300 is an outstanding preamplifier, there is no doubt about it. I have never heard the Counterpoint. If you decide to send it back, when you listen to your preamp and realize that you are missing something, then it might click. The NOS tubes ... | |
| Granite under wood for better isolation? I will probably chage out the Vibrapods down the road but I am shocked. It sounds great so far.... | |
| Granite under wood for better isolation? Believe it or not, I just bought a sheet of MDF from Home Depot. They cut it to size and it is actually the best so far. Better than the maple or granite. I have it under 4 Vibrapod isolators. 5 bucks. In fact, it is by far the best. I put the Map... | |
| Mcintosh C-2300 first impressions The one thing that I found with the Mac Preamp is that it is very neutral. I have the C220. I used to have an ARC LS 16 which had a more tubey sound. I like the C220 much better than the ARC unit. The teles make a huge difference period. You will ... | |
| Granite under wood for better isolation? I will have to try that. |
