    Mcintosh MC312 4 or 8 ohms on my Wilson Audio Sabrina?

    I had no clipping so far i used the 8 ohm taps but the amp got a little bit warmer...... With the 4 ohm taps the bass is a bit fuller maybe warmer.....with the 8 ohm taps in use the bass is slimmer....

    Macbook Pro -> USB -> C47, nothing happens?

    Be careful updating your firmware via Windows. I crashed my MA9000 once doing this. I had the same problems with my C47 i had before.....

    MCT Transport – which cable to DAC?

    Thanks for your reply! The MCT/DIN connection can deliver DSD signals but is limited to 96/24. So no 176/24 or 192/24 PCM signals........this would be possible via COAX. Basically that is no big deal, but i am not sure if a a high quality Coax cable would be better than the standard DIN...

    MCT Transport – which cable to DAC?

    Hi! I‘m thinking of an cable upgrade for my MCT500 transport. At the momenz i use the MCT DIN cable which came with the transport. this type of cable you can‘t upgrade because there is no other DIN cable......so i want a better COAX cable, maybe a Purist Audio Genesis RCA 75ohm cable. What do...

    McIntosh MCT 450 Transport – lens cleaning etc.

    My MCT450 had sometimes problems to read CDs. Not to often but sometimes especially newer Discs, so i upgraded to the MCT500. The DA1 is a solid DAC no problems at all. I wanted also an upgrade to the DA2 but i read that the DA2 has some problems......

    McIntosh MCT 450 Transport – lens cleaning etc.

    Maybe you‘re right and i should not open the transport. Most of the time the player plays without any issues......but sometimes it has problems to load a CD.....these CDs are newer ones .......maybe with no redbook standard on it.

    McIntosh MCT 450 Transport – lens cleaning etc.

    Hi, sometimes my MCT 450 transport has problems to load a CD. With SACDs no problems so far. This phenomenon occurs only with a handful CDs and not always. Especially when the unit is cold. So i am thinking of open the unit and clean the lens and the other moving parts. What do you think, is...

    Upgrade from C49 to C53 worth the money?

    Thanks a lot for the first replies! ........i guess if i do an upgrade i will go with a C2700, because it is different to my current C49.......or i hold the C49 which is doing its work very good. It is a pity that the upgrade from DA–1 to DA–2 is such an act :thumbsdown:

    Upgrade from C49 to C53 worth the money?

    Hi folks, first of all i hope you all doing well so far! My question is: is a upgrade from a C49 preamp to a C53 pre worth the price? I use a MC312 amp on my Wilson Audio Sabrinas. On my C49 the DA–1 is installed. The C53 comes with the DA–2 module installed. Would be a C2700 the better...
