This is my current setup for vinyl playback. The Manley Labs provides a microscope for the ear while the SS McIntosh provides the muscle that the Dynaudio Contour's really need. This system sounds powerful, detailed, beautiful, dynamic and lots of rhythmic drive.
Double balanced push-pull, 350w x 2. 0 distortion!
Manley Laboratories Jumbo Shrimp, Chinook
The Jumbo Shrimp with the Chinook phono pre, is a combination that injects a rich organic presentation that is dripping with substance and beauty. Air and space around all instruments with incredible rise and decay. It puts you AT the event whether live or studio!

Nice rig, Matt. Straightforward. Just the way I like it, too. Now if only I can get some pics of my system postedÂ… Got to finish the damn mantles and floor first. Maybe next year.
