I have just purchased a new Sony X830f 70. To my surprise it does not have RCA outputs so that I can run sound to my vintage Mcintosh C30. It is telling me to use a small a 3 pole stereo mini jack for audio output. REALLY? I am assuming that this is not going to sound very good through my...

I have had several dealings with AC and Ryan........He is great to deal with and a class act. Sounds like you made out just fine.

Audio Classics in Binghamton......very good service on tube gear

I have just bought a used JD 9. It came without an owners manual. I am confused on how to set the dip switches. I found the switch chart in an earlier post. My cartridge: Shure V15 VxMR Shure V15 VxMR Type moving magnet Output Voltage 3mv Frequency Response 10Hz - 25kH...

I have a Denon DL 300 MC cartridge that I bought new in the early 80's. It was well taken care of....but hasn't been used in 15 years. Do these go bad with age? I also have a Shure v15vxmr MM cartridge purchased new 2003. Which one should I use? I want to set my turntable up again, and I need...

Cayin makes a A-55TP uses KT88 tubes and has a phono output. Lists for around $1800. Keep your eyes open for used ones on Audiogon. There was one like this for sale recently for $1000. I decided on the Primaluna Dialogue II. Similar designed to the Cayin but has some upgrades such as auto...

I am currently running a pair of Klipsch RF-7's with my Mc gear. I love the sound, but would like a little more bass. I have never used a sub, and am wondering if I can hook up to my mc equipt. How do I do this? Any suggestions on a sub-woofer? Thanks, Tom

This was an eBay puchase I was able to get my money back from seller. he promised to use ONLY original packing....What a waste!!

I would suggest any of the Klipsch Heritage speakers. I am very happy with my Forte II's and my Mac tubes. I would go for the largest speakers your space and money will allow. Having said that, even the Heresys will sound great with that amp. Tom

Probably a stupid question........I have a pentium 4 style computer running Windows XP. I would like to play songs off the hard drive as well as use the cd drive to play cd's. How will it sound?? Thanks for your help. Tom
