God, I would want to switch out those old school binding posts for some banana plugs. Is that even possible or practical? I want the sound described but at very low volume with carefully chosen speakers like Crites.
I have had this amp for about a year…love it!
Appreciate your reactions since I’ve never owned a Mc but you never forget hearing one ever. What is the US model/price point of the amp in your video? Thanks, the vid was perfect for me.
Thanks for this review. Have you ever reviewed the NAD M22? Any comparison with the MC152?
Thanks for your great review, you mentioned ‘ Isolation devices’ that you used what are they exactly? I’m thinking of getting this Amp.
17.00 min in before you get to sound quality?? Come on
