Mcintosh C2600 preamp tube upgrade
I know this is off topic, but has anyone compared c2600 with c52 as paired with mc452? How much difference is there? Is it clearly audible? Which would you recommend for classical music with VA mozart speakers?  
Best car audio, Burmester? highly disapointed
Biggest disappointment ever with 2015 Maserati GT Bose system. Without a doubt the worst system I've heard in any car manufacturer I've owned. Even the base stereo in my old Honda was more pleasant. I heard the same about  Maserati QP and giblet. ... 
Krell KRC3 preamp
can you please answer the second part of my question about additional RCA connections from MX135 to my amp? Or am I confusing you?  
Oppo UDP - 205
Just set up my OPPO 205, half way through a blue ray movie everything froze, the picture and all controls on oppo. Had to unplug it to restart. Not sure what this means, the disc was brand new. Replayed the disk without further such episodes. Play... 
Krell KRC3 preamp
I appreciate your input. Which way is better? Do you know what the pros and cons of either way? Would you use the S3 on the krell if you were in my situation? Also, if I wanted to compare the Preamp section of Mx135 and KRC3, is it possible to con... 
Krell KRC3 preamp
Thank you. Is this the only way to do this? Is it possible to do it without Goldpoint SW4? I read this in a review but don't understand it: "Input S-3’s hidden potential is to act as a unity gain stage, perfect for explaining its complete label of... 
mx135 vs. C45 mcintosh
I am interested contact me  
Why no audio from Netflix?
Would this be a problem on OPPO 205? it doesn't have apps. My plan was to connect apple TV to OPPO 205 and have the sound go via analogue out to my pre amp (thinking of getting mx119 or Krell HTS7.1 
Mcintosh processor
would I be able to connect apple TV to the OPPO 205 and have the sound go to my preamp and video to the TV? Apple TV only has HDMI, not sure if this will work.  
Mcintosh processor
MX119 is newer than 134 has balanced outputs and close to my price point. I really like  MC aesthetics, Krell looks like a a cheap aluminum box from the 90's. With mx119 I should be able to play sacd's and hi def audio via analogue connects from O... 
Mcintosh processor
Can someone comment on mx134 vs krell HTS7.1 I would like to connect oppo 205 via analogue to either and use it for both 5.1 for movies, sacd, and 2 channel stereo. I like macintosh warm sound, and don't mind it for movies either. Just need to kno... 
Mcintosh processor
Can I connect Apple TV to oppo 205 and use its video processing to improve quality of picture  
Mcintosh processor
So you think the sound will be better from older MX than HTS7.1? I like warm macintosh sound. The analog pre amp should be sufficient for 2 channel correct? Any other recommendations?  
Krell HTS 7.1 vs Denon AVR-X4300H
Exactly the answer I was looking for. Thank you. Now, the question about old Mcintosh MX processors, 119 and 132 I think are around 1000$. How would those compare to HTS? Pros and Cons.  
Krell HTS 7.1 vs Denon AVR-X4300H
Can this be done: connect OPPO to KRC3 and HTS7.1 and then to krell KAV500? If so, how exactly would it work? Im having difficulty visualizing this. Would I need an extra amp for 2 channels? Extra speakers? Does this even make sense? I would reall...
