New MEN220 in the House
Just got my MEN220 today. Put it between my SimAudio P8 and W8.
I am in a smaller room with Dynaudio C4's. The MEN220 manual is a little tricky but once I got through it I managed to get the room calibrated to 99%. This could be the best addition to my system since the addition of the C4's and I'm not even a McIntosh guy, lol. It makes the C4's sing like I have never heard them before. Focus, image, control and sound stage has never sounded better. When I Bypass and compare it is amazing what a difference it makes. I thought my system sounded great but was I ever wrong. Possible the best tweak to date, though not cheap. I would highly recommend one if your listening room is less than ideal and the wife vetoes room treatment. |

shpritz.......Congratulations on your new MEN220. Room Perfect does make a huge difference. You may turn out to be a bigger McIntosh fan than you originally thought.
Don't forget to update your signature.

Is there a big difference between the MEN220 and Lyngdorf RP1?

The biggest thing that matters to me has a big difference. That's is the quality of sound. Calibrated and before calibration.
Both will work fine if you have a troubled room. But the men220 will be more revealing, and will sound much much more natural, not just adjusting the system to the room. Sent from my iPhone using A.Aficionado |
