Leo76.......Welcome to Audio Aficionado.

Your McIntosh C52 and MC452 are a wonderful combination. You may want to look at Wireworld cables to bring it all together. Wireworld Silver Eclipse interconnect and speaker cables are the sweet spot in their lineup for performance and price. Worth every cent.

I suggest you become a Subscriber to Audio Aficionado. http://www.audioaficionado.org/payments.php . This will bring you special member discounts that on Wireworld and a long list of other high-end audio brands from Legend Audio and Video, owned and operated by Masterlu (Ivan), who also owns this forum. It is worth the annual $25.00 membership dues. Become a Subscriber, then PM Masterlu for pricing on cables or anything else Legend Audio offers. You will be delighted.

hey guys!

a plain and simple question from germany: i have the ma6700 integrated, great amp for sure :-) the thing is: i`ve got the chance to get a used 452 for areally good price. so here are the questions:

1.would it make sense to use the the pre of the 6700 in combination with the 452?

2. or would you prefer biamping?

thanx in advance,

oliver
