There has been a delay while I tried to sell my Bryston 14bsst2. Looks like that might be resolved this weekend (knock on wood) and in goes the order for the 462!

I have owned my new MC462 for about seven weeks. It was purchased as an upgrade from an MC302 and I am using it to drive my Wilson Audio Yvettes which I have enjoyed greatly for the last two years. The MC462 sounded great out of the box, but there appears to be a bit of a 'burn in' period during which it blossums into its full glory ... ~ 70+ hours. The MC462 has great grip in the bass and mid-bass, however the nuances and ultimate sweetness in the upper midrange become more obvious after a bit of use. I am using Transparent speaker cables and a G5 power cable. The MC462 is defintely worth the power cable upgrade over the factory-supplied cable.
Delighted to be a member of the MC462 club! Last edited by Bob Bubeck; 11-23-2018 at 05:44 PM. |

That is great Bob, I too am finding similar hours for break in, just upgraded power cable and Balanced interconnects. |

Either amp is a desirable piece, deserves an upgraded power cord and benefits from quality balanced interconnects. Hope this helps. Last edited by Bob Bubeck; 11-28-2018 at 09:38 PM. Reason: Slightly modify wording in last sentence. |

I just purchased a 462. What do you guys recommend for a power cable upgrade? Is it worth to get a power conditioner as well if I get an upgraded power cable or is it overkill?

I was using a Transparent wall mounted powerbank 2 plus their premium power cord on my 452’s. Can’t comment specifically on the effect as I was using those power cables for all the components, def heard a difference on the preamp so just made it a system wide decision. I was told to plug amp directly into the wall and not through a power conditioner due to power draw if that makes sense

I'm looking at the C2600 preamp for my setup as well. What cables does everyone recommend? I was looking at the rocket 44 cables. Are these worth it or should I just use my mogami with neutrik connector cables?
