| Upgrade to McIntosh @femoore12 I have my reservations about the internal DAC2 installation. You see the DACs keep improving so do the connection types that come with them. Is it really worth the extra $1000 McIntosh internal DAC2 rather than trying out different e... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh @icehawks18 I heard the A4s. They are pleasing speakers.I think the room size/speaker choice is crucial in achieving an optimum sound. I am trying to pair bookshelves with a good sub which takes a lot of trial. Some brands integrate better. REL,S... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh @dreas I hear hear great things about the Revel F328Be speakers though I haven not auditioned them. How is the soundstage and imaging ? Would you say the sound is on the euphonic and dynamic side than accurate ? Three 8" woofers must be giving you... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh @styleman @glennewdick @femoore12 So the stock JJ tubes in MC275 better be replaced? Do you guys purchase those tubes online usually? | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh You guys rock! priceless input from all of you. I was wondering if the general consensus about the ideal setup is tube preamp+solid state power amp, among Audiophiles, for reaching a warm,tuby sound without sacrificing controlled,tight and fast b... | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh Thank you guys for all the replies! This has been a disscussion in the forum before. Tube in the input + SS output power amp vs Tube in the input + tube power amp. I was wondering if the MC275 would lack solid,tight and controlled bass due to its... | |
| KEF R11 / JBL HDI3800 /DALI RUBICON 8/ B&W CM10 S2 / REVEL F208 I just want to make sure I will be avoiding the bright, harsh sound reproduction. There is much contraversy on the brightness of B&W and KEF and lack of reliable reviews on the JBL as it is pretty new. People seem to be happy with DALI and REV... | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel I’d put the Cambridge and Rotel more in the “white wine” sonic categoryThank you. What about Denon PMA 2500NE and more expensive Technis SU-R1000 ( or maybe SU-G700) Would you say they would be both closer to Yamaha in terms of warmth and build qu... | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel Thank you guys a lot! Where do you guys think Cambridge amps fall interms of musicality, sonic performance and build quality in comparison to Yammy and Rotel? Of course, in the similar price range of max $4000-$5000 for new gear. | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel I upgraded to the McCormack DNA -750 monos. Much better!!, I keep thinking about separates and monos. Then I feel like I open a whole lot of new can of worms with the disputable interconnect cables. I have a tendency to obsess over minute detail... | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel it was shorter than that of my other option in the dictionary (antidisestablishmentarianism.)So I thought I'd go with this one to make things simple. | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel I was thinking the same. I love warm sounding amps. I looked at the streaming components and now try to find a streaming DAC that is at par with the overall quality of the system. Have you checked out Yamaha MusicCast NP-S303? not sure about the ... | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel under $1000. | |
| Yamaha vs Rotel Thank you. much appreciated. I am thinking of a streaming DAC if I go with the Yammy. Any recommendations? |
