Price aside, how would the McIntosh MA6300 do against the Krell KAV-400xi? I have an old Mac integrated and am thinking of getting a new one. Or should I be looking at the Krell or something else.

Harbeth Compact 7s are to be driven.

Errr... doesn't efficiency come into play as well. Thought I read it somewhere.

Always trust your ears.

Home demo is a must where possible, no matter what components but reality certainly will not allow it.

Some dealers DO give you home demos.

I have actually auditioned a SuperNait that way.

Wah so nice!!!

But I think your sound staging is probably skewed to the right.

Good quality single malt will get you more insight.

kkleung,

Corryreckan sounds fine to me.

But seriously, get some resonators from CMY.

Notice that 1 side has curtains while the other is without. Hehe....
