McIntosh 830


I’m enjoying the weekend with a new pair of Mc 830’s
Anyone else running these ? Would like to chat them up !

Currently speakers are Sonus Fabre sonetto fives 😃

What are you currently running ?
I guess I'm just not sure how you're allocating budget with the 830 monoblocks. They're like $8k, right? If you are spending that much on amps, and $5k on speakers, spending like $2000 or so on a good DAC seems like a logical next step, unless you don't listening to digital music. There are so many great options. What do I have? I'm not sure why it matters, but my current list of DACs (in order of most used): dCS Rossini+Clock, dCS Bartok, Chord Hugo 2, RME ADI-2, Lynx Aurora (n), Mytek Manhattan 2, Mytek Brooklyn DAC+, Theta Casablanca V.
400+ at 4 Ohm, NICE!

  Don’t pay much mine, your speakers are just fine for these amps.

  I was razzed for quite a while with my setup, and my speakers being trash, or firewood, etc etc.
 if you like it, that is all that matters. Enjoy, those amps are wicked cool!!

 300+ into any speaker is great, that is the minimum anyone should have, for detailed punch, crunchy mids, and nice highs!

 Enjoy!
