Saying you’re all set is the “Kiss of Death” here on AA!

Congrats

Truer words were never spoken. "All set" is just a sneeze away from full-blown Lu-Flu.

But congrats anyway!

Congrats!

LOL for sure...back in early 2016 I really 'thought' I had some nice equipment. Then after a few months of lurking........ um a big fat NO

$87K later I realized you know maybe this AA thing wasn't such a great idea

I tease! Its a GREAT forum and has been good to get solid feedback from members.

Enjoy the D1100.

Thank. Cost effective and since I have a small listening space, practical. I would like to upgrade at some point to a MC452 but only when I change the speakers. What I have now drives them nicely and allows funds for other audio items.

Ok, the holy trio arrived today!!! Now the setup work begins!
I will post more pics as soon as they are all out of their boxes.
QQ: can I stack ALL THREE? D1100 at the bottom and the C1100 on top.

The Scalas are arriving on Monday and I am back in business!

Making progress!
I decided to be the only person on the planet that will set their C1100 horizontally :-)

Another QQ: the C1100 arrived with a cable that I have never seen before: it's a proprietary cable that connects the C1100 to the D1100 (on the C1100 it is labeled as "to digital preamplifier" and on the D1100 "analog preamp". What are those for? Does it mean that I do not need to run XLR cables between the C1100 and D1100? Does it replace those?

Thank you!
