In Reply to: How does B&K Ref30 square off against Lexicon MC1? posted by TomP on December 22, 2000 at 10:59:39:
You're comparing a US$2800 pre/pro vs. a $6000 pre/pro for starters so let's see how they stack up.THX Ultra Cert, and Surround EX Capability: Draw
Variable Crossovers for all channels: Lexicon
Component Video Switching: B&K
External 5.1 Input for DVD-A/SACD: B&K
Ridiculous number of DSP effects you
probably won't use anyway: Lexicon
Analog bypass: B&K
Equalization to remove room nodes: B&KAs you can see, the serious advantage points go to B&K.
If you really have the budget for the MC-1, other options worth
serious consideration are the Integra Research RDC-7, and the
upcoming EAD Theatermaster Ovation Mk II.
