and why.
Always curious about what drove the final decision.

He bought the M10 V2, because it was on Close-Out Pricing because of the V3 - John Marks 18:52:30 11/20/24 (1)
Supposedly, the amp section of the M10 V2 is better than the C700.

That said, the M10 V2 does not have an MM phono stage, so he will have to outboard that.

  Closed out pricing, but he still has to buy a phono stage. Hmmm, wonder if he'll really have saved much.
AFAIK, he has not yet bought... - John Marks 06:58:49 11/20/24 (0)
But it does look like the Front Runner is the NAD C 700 V2.

Honestly, I think that cost was an issue. If money were no object I'd be rooting for the M33 Masters series unit that is based on the Purifi Eigentakt board.

Also, I think that Wife Acceptance Factor/Form Factor was an issue.

If I were choosing for myself, I'd get the Retro one because I still prefer knobs and switches to video screens.

But also, at least for me, Dirac Room Correction is a must-have because of his loudspeakers being on a sideboard/credenza up against a wall.
