That actually looks perfect: I use Tidal and MQA a lot and the C2700 is Roon ready

Hey guys, I am doing a pretty drastic overhaul of my system and have already moved out several pieces and replaced them. I have really started to get into streaming and have been using my Macbook Pro into my processor. It's okay, but dragging it around the rom is a PIA and I feel I can get much...

Update: Ordered the following via Amazon: Meze 99 Classics Focal Listen Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 Audeze Sine Source: I’m strictly using the sources I’ll be using when traveling...an iPod, iPhone X, iPad, and MacBook Pro Media (all high res): Bright Lights - Gary Clark Jr Sunset Blvd - Charlie...

Hope everyone is well! I was hoping some posters on the board could give me some recommendations on what headphones to look at. These cans will be strictly used for travel (airports, planes, hotel, etc) and will not be used with an external amp. Majority of time will be used with my trusty and...

Meridian Director is on sale now for 349 since they are about to release their new version of it soon. Awesome DAC. I have the Explorer 2 and used to have all Meridian HT gear.

Hey everyone. I have been lurking for a few months and just recently signed up for help with getting into the headphone world of music. I have been strictly a speaker guy except when traveling up until recently. My current home system:   McIntosh C2500 tube preamp McIntosh MX121 surround...

Hey everyone, I am a big fan of this community so far. Had a good conversation about my preamp in another thread. Anyway, I was hoping to get some thoughts and or recommendations for some cans. I have a budget of about 2k or so new or used. I would say 70% of my music is rock (grunge, blues...

I have a budget of about 2k or so new or used. I would say 70% of my music is rock (grunge, blues rock, alternative), 15% alt country, and the rest a mix of pop, R&B, and classical. My home system is very neutral and revealing. I think with the cans, I'd like something accurate, but smooth. Cans...

Here's the specs of the McIntosh C2500. Glad you mentioned XLR. That would be the preferred method of connecting the pre to the headphone amp. The C2500 is also unique in that it is also a DAC housed in the same box. The McIntosh’s overall tone is on the rich side of neutral, but never seems...

That's what I was thinking. I believe the manual even says it's for dynamic headphones. I haven't started to look into headphone amps yet. Are there high quality models that will let me use the C2500 has my preamp?

Hey everyone, I hope this is in the right forum. I consider myself a pretty serious audiophile, but have never really gotten into the headphone game. I have the B&W P7's for my constant traveling, but that's it. Due to the lifestyle change of having a 15 month old kiddo, I am going to be getting...
