Hi Arthur: Just got back from seeing the Departed (Great Movie) and I noticed the Mcintosh set-up too. Nice set-up. (McIntosh MVP-861, I think it was a 6900 Integrated and a MR85) Probably would make an interesting forum: Best Looking Gear, but I am sure it's already on here somewhere. I personally think McIntosh makes the best looking components and probably one of the reasons why McIntosh has stayed in business for 50 plus years. Those wonderful blue lights. lol
hifi audio in movies
Hey everyone - I remember reading a thread here about never seeing high-end audio in movies (as props etc.) but I can't find it now. Anyway, I just got back from seeing Scorsese's "The Departed" and Matt Damon's girlfriend uses his full McIntosh system in one of the scenes, and it's a 2-channel rig! I didn't see any speakers but the MR85, MA6500 and one of their cd players are in full close-up view. I suppose Mc paid for that...but it is the first time I have ever seen anything like that in a movie. Have you seen nice gear in any other movies before?
