System includes Sonus Faber Stradivari with McIntosh components. I was driving the system from the 2nd zone of a McIntosh MX132 (Which is upstairs in our TV Room-Required 100 Foot of Speaker Cable), until I borrowed the Pre C45 from my Mac Dealer. I have just ordered a Tube Mcintosh Pre C220, and am going to see which is better the Solid State or Tube Pre-Amp.
System is very Musical, and powerful enough to drive the Room, which is a 2 Story Space with Hard Surfaces, ie Glass and Stone Floors. The Irregular Shape of the Room, which is very Open helps by not creating any reflections or Standing Waves. The system is warm and exceedingly Musical. Wife loves the Music. Looking for a Piece of Furniture to put the McIntosh Components into it.(I know that would be Blasphemy). The Look of the components was very important to the design of the Room.
You probably have one of the most picturesque rooms in all of Audiogon! Good work. Just wondering if you're having any ill effects from the SF's so close to the wall. What about echo?
