| Budget amp for NHT 2.5i - suggestions? 105sixteenWould be interesting to hear/see how your system turned out? What do you think? Drop us a line and let us know. | |
| Budget amp for NHT 2.5i - suggestions? If you were to decide go that direction something you should consider would be using another McCormack 0.5 Deluxe and vertically bi-amping the NHT's. McCormack also makes a couple preamps that would work well in this situation the TLC-1 or the Mic... | |
| Budget amp for NHT 2.5i - suggestions? If you can swing the cash, try a McCormack DNA-0.5. I have one hooked to my NHT's 2.5's and they sound awesome. This amps mates perfectly with the NHT's. | |
| All vandersteen users ? AudiowomanAs a thought you could get casters that permit furniture movement on carpeted floors at Home Depot or Lowe's for less than $20. Place them under the four corners of your stands, this would allow you to slide the systems from one room to ... | |
| Looking for a new Turntable and need some advice. Thanks for the inputs. I've scheduled an appointment to hear the Origin Live in the coming weeks, after that will find a place to give a listen to the Vpi and Michell gear. I will also start looking for someone that caries Acoustic Signature just ... | |
| What pre in the $500 pre owned market You can also keep an eye out for a McCormack Micro Line Drive. It has 3 inputs, a tape input and output, plus it has the advantage of being a passive and active preamp. The active side can be adjusted +/-3 dbs with jumper inside the unit. Another ... | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? I remember Mr McCormack saying his amps were designed with a high input impedance so they would work well with passive and tube preamps. After talking with him several time about preamps I got the feeling he prefers the sound of passives, though h... | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? Right now I have a McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe Gold with the Jensen's transformer inputs. At one point I had a pair of DNA-1 mono-blocks then switched to a pair of DNA-1 Deluxe Golds that I used to vertically bi-amp a pair of Vandersteen 3A Sig/2Wq com... | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? Phd, Unfortunately that would be a least a three day drive for me, but I do have a buddy that lives in the Seattle area. Next time I'm out that direction I'll have to give you a shout. | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? Phd, Not to make this sound bad but once you hear the Ultra the stock really sounds veiled in comparison. The transparency in the soundstage just opens up to reveal layers upon layers of information. Just to tempt your taste buds if you happen to ... | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? 03-16-10: Phd TVAD, you have the ultimate preamp! The VRE-1 is very spendy but beautiful and one day I will own one even if I have to wait.Phd if you would like a preamp that is as Mr. McCormack puts it right up there with the best might I sug... | |
| McCormack Preamps SiebertThe McCormack Micro Line Drive offers a passive and an active output, the active output has an adjustable output of +/-6bd of gain. The -6db setting offers the option of weather you like an active or passive preamp. The other portion of the... | |
| B&W vs Vandersteen? Antonkk, I posted on your preamp amp question also. But one thing the Vandersteen's offer is the ability to improve upon the sound. If your stuck with only the 3A Signatures you can tailor the last octave or two with a pair of 2Wq's and increase t... | |
| Pre and power amp for Vandersteen 3A Signature? You must have a really large room, that 13 foot distance from the Vandy's would require almost the same separation between the speakers to get the best sound from them (Wow that's large enough for an IMax screen). I second Unsound's recommendation... |
