| It’s that time of year- 2020 audio wish list I don’t even know what GIKed means | |
| How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing! If you’re thrilled with your system- STOP! You are done. Buy music I reached the point of being thrilled 4 years ago. Since then the only $ I’ve spent on my system has been to service a 40 plus year old tuner. | |
| Looking for Suggestions for IC's I have a 250.8; very happy with Acoustic Zen Matrix balanced IC. My preamp is also Pass, so whether my experience is actually useful, I don't know. I did find I liked the Acoustic Zen better that Audience cable. Analysis Plus also has very good ICs. | |
| Fell asleep while TT was running with ortodoncia black cartridge! As others have said, no harm done. When I was a teen I would fall asleep in bed with my Koss headphones on. Table had been spinning all night. I eventually bought an arm lift marketed by Monitor Audio. It was under $20.That was in the 70's. These ... | |
| It’s that time of year- 2019 audio wish list For those that answered this nearly a year ago, did your year in music/audio go as you anticipated?My cartridge is still providing tremendous satisfaction. I did add more music, serviced two older components, and that's it- | |

| Mofi One record cleaning solution Yup- I see it have alcohol. Thanks! | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? 1- I truly dislike IPAs to the point I won't touch the stuff. Give me any variety of other beers please. 2- To my apparently flawed ears, I think Pass makes superb amps and pre-amps3- haven't heard any Ayre gear in at least a decade so my experien... | |
| What to do with broken McIntosh Pre-Amp Audio Classics is a go to place for Mac repairs. I would not send this older piece to Mac as they will most likely sub out the work to Audio Classics (they are a short drive from each other). If you don’t want to go the repair route, most likely A... | |
| Which parts suppliers are the most helpful and reliable? Depending on needs, I’ve ordered from Michael Percy, Parts Connexion, Newark Element, Mouser and others. I’ve never had an issue, but you need to know what you want when you place your order. My most recent purchase was from Newark - | |
| How many amps do you own? only oneone is the loneliest number | |
| Tuner power cable ? A guess it’s a miracle that my 40 year old McIntosh MR78 with a stock captive cord sounds as good as it does. From back when hot dogs were good for you I suppose! | |
| How much discount typically for a new MC275 to expect from a dealer? jrpnde- as long as you went to Binghamton, did you also go to AC in Vestal? Also, did you have any reason to believe that McIntosh sold direct? |
