Brian's system!Hey Brian! Welcome to the McIntosh world and glad to hear you are loving it (I just saw your forum post about it). I have heard the 2275 twice now, the second time on 802Ds, and I agree with your a... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
Jonah's attempt at Hi-FiGreat system. I just bought a pair of Triangle Comete ES speakers - they should arrive later this week. Did you have those before the S1.4? I auditioned the Focus 140 and really liked them but pref... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |

Simple SystemI love MIT with my McIntoshes. Perhaps you could give them a try. Also, I have to say that after hearing them in 3 systems, I find the VR4jrs lack a little HF definition and clarity. However I am s... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
A pleasing StartI agree with Karl. The speakers are part of your problem but the CD player may be as well. Changing CD players is much easier so I would try that first. Arcam is a good idea, Cary too. posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |

JB's 2-Channel SystemThe 640c is a great budget player. I used to own a 545 mk2 and it kicked butt! You could upgrade everything else and the amp still wouldn't be ashamed. I still wish I had it for back up and because... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
Proac loverA Unison S6! That is a rare one I would like to hear. Nice setup. Arthur posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
All wood, all tube 845 SETThe Unison amps I have heard have all been very impressive in terms of driving inefficient speakers. The 845 monoblocks were amazing with JM Labs and Royds - ditto the little Simply 2. I would love... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
YBA / Devore Fidelity deliver magicIt is interesting to me how you guys mention YBA needing fast speakers - I feel exactly the same way about McIntosh. I guess they both need to be able to shine in full glory. I am anxious to try YB... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
YBA / Devore Fidelity deliver magicI totally agree with Mike. I too used to have N804s and can relate to what you said very easily. Funny how those speakers are like that. I can vouch for the JM Lab Electra line but now they... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |
YBA / Devore Fidelity deliver magicVery nice setup. I want to try some YBA very soon. I appreciate the refinement French electronics have to offer, owning Kora and JM Lab. YBA and Jadis are the next ones on the list to try out. I ag... posted over 20 years ago | View comment | |

My Updated Single-Ended Audio System!Wow! This is one of the best looking not-too-expensive systems I have seen so far. Those amps are really cool. posted almost 21 years ago | View comment | |
Cashew TreeWow! What a time warp you have. How do the old McIntoshes compare to the new ones? Talk is the old equipment doesn't quite compare so I wonder what your thoughts are. Keep it going! Arthur posted almost 21 years ago | View comment | |
Maybe not all out...but here it is.Hi againJust wanted to know what you think of the C46. I am very interested in it for the equalizer but I don't really want to give up my tubes (VK-3i). How does it compare to the C2200? Perhap... posted almost 21 years ago | View comment | |
Maybe not all out...but here it is.Now that is what I call a setup! I am becoming a fan of having several systems too since I can tailor each one to a particular type of music. Besides, it's fun to swap around when you need a change... posted almost 21 years ago | View comment | |
FIRST REAL SYSTEM...Simple...Sweet...a good start.HeyI want a MC252 but haven't made the leap yet. I have heard those speakers and agree that a tube preamp would probably be a great bet and would match well with the Mc. keep it up! Arthur posted almost 21 years ago | View comment | |
I'm happyQuite a setup! I had never seen those Tannoys before and getting to chose between SS and tube Mcs is a great idea. I am in the process of doing something similar to suit my two very different moods... posted almost 21 years ago | View comment | |
