Default Soooooooo, this is what all the hubub is about....
Got a few critical listening sessions under my belt now and can say I'm very happy with my decision to try out some Mc gear.

Put on a few of my fav cd's like DSOTM, Steely Dan Gold and Diana Krall Live from Paris and can say I'm impressed.

Ive only had the v up to 50% so far, but that's plenty loud for me, in fact my daughters pet ginea pigs were quite moved by the experience.lol

Question for you mc lovers.....

How does something so small weigh so much?

The 152 is basically the same size as the c47 but when you got to move it it seems like its nailed to the bench
