Greetings from Connecticut
Hello all,
Just a quick introduction - recently joined/subscribed after finally making the jump as a lifelong user of SONY ES to McIntosh. Just wrapping up my McIntosh-centric home theater (DIY) and will next move on to a McIntosh-based 2 channel listening area once I come up for air (and give my bank account a rest). I was fortunate enough to find a MX122 and MC207 both NOS and picked up a like new MCD600, MPC1500, RS200 from Audio Classics (great guys!). I know just enough about A/V stuff to get me in trouble, so I look forward to learning a lot here on AA. Best, Craig

Greetings from Connecticut
Welcome Craig! Good to have more of us here. . Good find with Audio Classics. As Buck said, they will take care of you. Great company.
As you build out or grow your system, also look to Masterlou, (Ivan) for equipment. He carries a long list of products and provides excellent service and advice. Craig

Greetings Craig from another Connecticut native. Sounds like you've got a great system going congrats to you.
I'm also looking forward to taking my first ride up to AC within the next month. It's about 4 1/2 hrs. away from my little spot in the state. |
