Great to see another Seattle area ML fan on the forum. We are spreading like the moss in my lawn.

The kind folks at Magnolia Hi Fi in the Universtiy disctrict in Seattle host some after hours listening parties on occasion and the last one I attended included a direct comparison of SHM vs. standard CDs from Silver Platter's. They played a few examples like Led Zepplin II, Chicago, etc (so a...

No specific Mc Religion here so all things being equal (price is definately a factor), I will look and listen. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks Gordon, this is exactly what I was looking for which validates that I won't spend any time trying to try to fix the 201 and will focus on what I can do toward a 301 or 500. I am not going to sell it (at least without massive disclaimers) and pass off any of my issues to anyone else so I...

Looking for some advice on whether or not to repair or replace my existing McIntosh 201 CD/SACD player. It is not under warranty and it is not playing back CD's consistantly. Some times it works and some times it doesn't. Long story short, I took it in to get it checked out and it can be...

Great to see another Monolith III fan and you are lucky enough to be in range of the foremost experts of Monolith's on the planet in JonFo. Look up his profile and posts and you will get a sense of what the exstreme can be but Cherian and others (search on Monolith) can give you good advice as...

You're on Jon et al and we just need to lock in a time or two for scheduling. Speaking of which, did anyone get a good contact of the Sales/Marketing leads while you were on tour in Lawarance that we could check on to see if they might offer a combined demo to the group? I am sure they are...

I would love to hook up with the gang if possible as well. I am there every year working but could steal some time I'm sure to meet. I owe Jon gallons of drinks for all his help so name the time and I will try to make it work.

Martin Logan must beleive McIntosh gear do something to put their speakers in a postive light as almost every picture I have seen associated with the introduction and tours of the CLX were paired with Mc gear. When they toured the CLX in Seattle the room was glowing with blue light and I can...

Thanks Gordon and yes it is a McIntosh 201 so I will chase this down. Appreciate the help.

I have a fairly low hour MC 201 SACD player that is having some problems tracking SACDs. It seems to be doing okay with regular CDs but it will spin or lose track, skip to the next song in mid track, or just freeze. Anyone have any advice sort of shipping the player back or taking it in for...

Very cool and great write ups. Its now on my wish list to do. Thanks!

Nice set ups! Love those CLXs.

Looks like you started a Nightwish and broader investigation that I hope others enjoy as much as we do. Well stated analogy by your friend in terms of Anette and Tarja and I agree there are some songs only Targa can pull off. If you don't have some of the concert DVDs you have to get them...

Wow--Tom pretty eclectic tastes as well from Keane to Dream Theatre. Great to see more diversity of tastes as I have not seen much of the edgier stuff here before. Greg Slo: I really like NightWish and think Thomas is one of the best composers in the domain today. I actually prefer the...

Got hooked early on ELP, Kansas etc but like Porcupine Tree, Spocks Beard . . . . My favorite is Dream Theatre but just seem to be drawn to the long form for some reason.

I would be interested in some of your suggestions as I have everything you listed (Nightwish, Epica, Within Temptation etc) but there is a section where you can post reviews fo specific recordings that might help others as well. My favorite category is usually progressive to progressive metal...

To sub or not to sub with the CLX or any speaker is of course personal choice but the good folks at ML have designed some of their subs to work seemlessly with the CLX. Apparently there is a CLX configuration that has been on some of the subs way ahead of the launch of the CLX. I had the...

Wow--amazing set up and system!

I love the idea!
