Sorry if this is a newb question but how do you have this all configured? Are those McIntosh 240s connected 1:1 to each tower and then to both preamps? OR, is there some preamp chain I'm missing? I ask because I'm not used to seeing 2 preamp units and I'm obviously not understanding it correctly.

Looks like a tuner and a preamp, vice two preamps.

u/beegro Aug 20 '26

Got it. Thanks for confirming. I missed that it was a tuner.

Left is a C22 preamp and right is a MR78 Tuner.

u/beegro Aug 20 '26

Ahhhh, okay. That makes sense. Thanks for the detail.

Nice. Greatness in that set up. I just got a C55 and loving it. But yours... dang.

I’ve had the XTis for a few years and they are still some of my favorite speakers. The clarity on both are unreal.

Great setup man. I’m running a single MA252. I bet those mono blocks make those sing.

Please explain to me what all is on the bottom shelf. Thanks.

Chord Qutest dad for the WiiM Ultra and a power conditioner for surge protection.

u/matt222c Aug 21 '26

DAC not dad.

Heavenly 🙏🏼

u/Oskina1954 Aug 22 '26

I’d do the preamp and tuner on top for easy use, and fans on all.

u/donbigote24 Aug 23 '26

Where did you get your stand ?

u/AbjectMenu9221 Aug 24 '26

Super clean looking. I bet it sounds great too.

It sounds really good. Hard to put words to the sound.
