| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles, Al-I think the wise move at this point would be to focus my funds towards the Decware ZP3 first and foremost. This buy will restrain tube funds, so what I will do is replace the 12AX7’s for the time being, followed by the 310A’s shortly a... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles, Al, thank you guys.Al, thank you for the link to this product.. While listening to a few digital file sharing yesterday without the sub on, I have to say, the cornwalls provided me with more than satisfactory bass on their own. Integratin... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles-I am using the 219 preamp section when running my oppo for digital listening right now.Question... its a pretty silly one but.. I am looking to upgrade my phono as discussed previously. I am still using my marantz 7701's built in phono, bu... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 The PSVANE WE reps run about $800 a pair. Damn pricey for two tubes but perhaps worth that in difference to the shuguangs...Which would be the first pair or two to change in order of reaping results? 12AX7's and what else ? | |

| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Al. I have an SVS PB13 ultra. No speaker level outs, just rca and XLR. I have the oppo RCA analog outs connected to my 219. Earlier I connected the oppo via XLR L channel analog output, into the SVS and something was NOT right. I got signal throug... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 I've got a rather simple question. I have been listening to vinyl since getting the 219 but have just been trying some digital through it as of last night with my oppo. My question is, I am running the oppo direct into the 219 and using its pre am... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Listened to my Original Epic pressing of Pearl Jam’s Vitalogy the other evening. The 219ia smothered any mention of what my previous 500watt SS monoblocks could make of this album. It’s a great album to use as a basis as the songs are dynamic and ... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Watersalas-Similar situation. I didn't even hear a 219ia until I plugged my own in. I heard the 216 which was loaded with gold lion kt88's through lascalas, and then heard a 518ia through cornwalls. I decided it would be the 219 or the 508 from t... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Chris-I know I am not as well rounded and experienced in the variety of amplification out there. But I can tell you that everything I've read about these amps is displayed with this 219ia. I listen to everything from jazz, to Fiona apple, to behem... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Couple days in and I am loving the amp. Currently running off 4ohm taps with the negative feedback off. Cornwalls crossed over at 40Hz to the sub. The amp sounds great at low levels, and as i increase the volume the amp does not cause fatigue. I a... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Roxy-i agree completely. I love how it glows in my room.charles-At my low level to moderate listening I am under a watt. When I have it roaring a bit, I’ll get it pushing 5-8. I'm loving this thing. | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Migueca-Thank you. If you dont mind the price difference, go with the 219ia. It is the flagship of the line, and has its massive transformers and beautiful midrange. It also is a true dual mono design. Is the 508 as well? I know the 518, 218 etc, ... | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Spinning Michael buble's Christmas album with my wife right now at 4ohm's.. Also for the first time ever, plugged all 3 ports on my sub and set it to 'sealed mode'. (SVS pb13 ultra). Everything is sounding very nice. | |
| Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Charles-Yes, the power supply being transformer and tube rather than a SS short cut is what stands out to me with the ZP3 most of all.Amp is warming up now with the 4ohm taps. Will begin spinning a record in just a few moments.... |
