The "blunder" I referred to was selling off another piece of equipment only to regret doing so, per the OP's prior post on his C22. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

MA9000 is a sweet spot to be for sure. It’s a buy once, enjoy for the next 20-30 years piece of gear if it wasn’t for that pesky audiophilia and ugradetitus getting in the way all the time...

"I was quite intrigued by Paul Seydor's review of the C22, and I considered selling/trading in my C2300 to get a C22, mainly due to the loudness control. I decided eventually I preferred the consistent look of the 2300 and my MC501s. Does your C70 lack something, that you miss the C22 so much?"
