    Programmable triggers and HT passthrough

    I have my MA8950 set up to use home theater passthru, with 'unbal 1' as the passthru input. This works well, except for one minor issue I haven't been able to figure out,.

    New MA8950 with home theater passthru

    Well I finally decided to get myself a new Mac! A shiny new MA8950 which is taking the place of my MX117 / CR7 / MC2125 in the main system. Purchased from a local dealer which is primarily a home theater place, so little in the way of 2 channel gear in inventory. Did have a nice time demoing...

    New (to me) MC2125

    Wanted to share my excitement, just received a beautiful MC2125 purchased from McIntoshAudio.com. Tom and Terry did a fantastic job restoring it to pristine condition and it sounds fantastic! I am using the preamp output of a MAC1900 receiver as a preamp. This makes for a pretty versatile...
