Great C2 Sig and MAc Setup I love it

Jim Hawkins  » Feb 16, 2013 02:56 AM

Drooling right now. So one thing I am dying to know is how the towers are doing in what seems to be a great big room? Great stuff. 10/10!

KahunaCanuck  » Dec 17, 2012 02:23 AM

Thanks for the comments guys, the Dyns are a sweet sounding speaker and I am really enjoying them. My Olive sounds good, though it has a few weird little bugs...operating it from the screen is a pain, from the iPad it works great!

Bluvette  » Dec 15, 2012 10:15 PM

Love the new setup. How do you like the Dyn's 2's I am leaning towards them myself, very nice. I also see you have the Olive 04hd, how do you like it? Perfect setup I give you another 10 if I could.

Dave_6  » Dec 04, 2012 09:36 AM

Intamin  » Jan 29, 2012 06:48 PM

This is a beautiful set up! Nice to see you were able to get your two channel room into a more sound friendly environment.

bmwone  » Jan 09, 2012 08:44 AM

Cool, nice and clean!!! Really like it. Comphy chairs

rkolinski  » Dec 21, 2011 03:51 AM

You definitely own beautiful equipment!

KahunaCanuck  » Dec 19, 2011 09:49 PM

Hi guys, thanks again! In the midst of making a change of rooms...should mean I can get my Speakers onto stands and allow a bigger room as well...can't wait. New pics when it happens!

Bluvette  » Dec 19, 2011 09:46 PM

Awesome 2 channel, great gear and speakers.

FTTim  » Dec 19, 2011 01:27 PM

Wow, Your setup looks fantastic. I actually think to buy the C500T too. With the handles you have, the pre amp rocks. Wherendid you get this handles? Are they from McIntosh???? I want them too..... FTTIM, Frank

Blurayisgood  » Mar 14, 2011 08:44 PM

oh i am so sorry i saw ur comment just now... those pesky females. great stuff tho.....wish u could have them on stands

Blurayisgood  » Mar 14, 2011 08:42 PM

please put those 5000 dollar b&w's on stands were they belong. if not some else deserves them.

wes  » Feb 12, 2011 11:39 PM

Nice tubes

nezff  » Jan 29, 2011 09:11 AM

wow, love that gear! 10

Johnny Vinyl  » Jan 29, 2011 06:51 AM

I have no idea why I haven't rated either of your setups up to now. Obviously a gross oversight on my part. Anyway, what else can I do but rate you a 10/10 for the lovely cozy room and top notch equipment. It would be a pleasure to sit and have a listen in that room. Congrats Mike! Absolutely outstanding!

Elinvader1  » Jan 25, 2011 12:12 PM

Impressive McIntosh gear...Just lovely....Enjoy

naturephoto1  » Jan 22, 2011 01:09 PM

Mike, The new Gallery looks great with a lot of great equipment. Congrats.

landry_p2000  » Jan 22, 2011 01:07 PM

Wow! Your set-ups are amazing!

jjmbxkb  » Jan 06, 2011 12:42 AM

No doubt a 10! Wonderful room, and top gears.

B.Hulk  » Jan 02, 2011 02:26 PM

Absolutely stunning McT setup...congrats.

stevo  » Jan 01, 2011 02:10 PM

Wow! that is some serious gear! love it.....

KahunaCanuck  » Jan 01, 2011 12:58 PM

Thanks guys! I was very happy with my 805s, but when I heard the 805Ds, I knew I had to have them...you expect with a diamond tweeter that the difference would be all in the high end, but the midrange and overall character is more "in your face" than the S...the blend between mid and high is very well done, and while detailed, is never harsh. Overall the speaker is more exciting...and since I am stuck with using a bookcase instead of stands (she is only so tolerant!) works better for my room.

Cochlea  » Jan 01, 2011 06:30 AM

I'm always enjoying your setups, top gear all around in such a nice home. How would you compare the 805s vs 805di? Is it worth the upgrade in your opinion?

mj3k  » Jan 01, 2011 01:45 AM

Loving the new pic's Big Kahuna...McIntosh..Sweettttt....

snsguy  » Jan 01, 2011 01:24 AM

If you've got black and whites (B&W) you get an automatic ten.
