Do people buy MAC gear for the blue meters


I have a friend of mine that owns all MAC gear but never listens to it. He says he just bought it for the glass front and blue meters. I have a feeling a lot of people are like my friend.

At one time, I think it could be argued that McIntosh catered to the Doctor and Lawyer communities, who could afford spending top money but may have been more concerned with looks then sound.

Those days are over. McIntosh makes some excellent equipment that looks great and is built to last a lifetime. While it maybe bested by other companies in terms of producing the last ounce of detail and transparency, in my opinion it still can hold its own amongst the majority of other hi-end companies.

And no, I don't own any equipment with blue meters.
