| McIntosh mp 100 Phone Preamp Problem.... Blinking Red Power Button I always power down before changing connections. To me, it only increases bad possibilities to not do so. That is a pretty nice phono stage. Once repaired it should serve you well. Good luck. Bill | |
| McIntosh mp 100 Phone Preamp Problem.... Blinking Red Power Button Maybe a dumb question, but was the Mcintosh powered up during the interconnect switch? Bill | |
| Ceramic cartridge phono stage options? @elliottbnewcombjr Maybe not. Reading further, By applying the correct reverse equaliaztion and level shifting, the CerMag takes the high output from a ceraming or crystal phono cartridge and changes it to match that of a moving magnet phono... | |
| Connecting McIntosh Preamp to Yamaha AS 3200 - Do I use both XLR Bal 1 and Bal 2? If you already tried using the RCA mains input on the Yamaha and weren't satisfied with the result, I will agree that a power amplifier with XLR inputs is probably the best solution. Bill | |
| Connecting McIntosh Preamp to Yamaha AS 3200 - Do I use both XLR Bal 1 and Bal 2? You would also need to set your volume control on the Yamaha to full volume. Bill | |
| Connecting McIntosh Preamp to Yamaha AS 3200 - Do I use both XLR Bal 1 and Bal 2? After looking at the manual pictures, I would say that it isn't really set up for using the XLR inputs as you would like. There are RCA preamp outs and amp ins that would normally be used if the preamp and amp sections are separated. If you use ... | |

The table was only on the market for a year or two as there was a patent dispute over the Magnefloat assembly which Teac lost. Warehoused units were sold off pretty cheaply at that t... | |
| B&W 802D1 - How can I tame the brightness? It would be really interesting to see 802d speakers upside down. My N801s were too in my face until I put a tube amp on the high end. It seemed to sort of smooth out the mids and highs. Bill | |
| BW 803 D2 // Diamond Tweeter Ebay lists tweeters for these. I would make sure the part # matches. I replaced a tweeter in my N801 this way. Bill | |
| Favorite Tribute Albums? I'm also a fan. A few favorites are Time and Love--Laura Nyro tribute Two Rooms--Elton John Deadicated--Dead (I think most here know this one) Stop Making Sense--Tribute to Stop Making Sense Bill | |
| How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? The OP will be using a mono cartridge. The query is about whether a dedicated mono phono stage would be superior using the mono cartridge to a stereo phono stage using a mono switch with a mono cartridge. Bill | |
| Audio Technica AT 1005 ii or Fidelity Research FR54? The only thing that precise pivot to spindle distance does is allow for correct alignment at the stylus location. If you are able to align correctly, the pivot to spindle distance is correct. Changing arms will change the sound, but the pivot to... | |
| Need a little help What I mean is, the splitter will work just fine. Bill | |
| Need a little help The splitter suggested above will split your single L/R output three ways. You only need two, one for your Anthems and one for your sub. Bill | |
| Favorite Cover Album Time and Love is a great Laura Nyro tribute. ditto for Two Rooms/Elton John. |
