I have seen some Interesting comments about Mcintosh lately


These comments come from here and a couple of other sites.

1.The only people that buy Mcintosh gear are one's that just don't listen.
2. Mcintosh is what rich people buy just like Mercedes Benz.
3. Mcintosh relies on generational buyers as a business plan.
4. Mcintosh is known for rebranding products and putting there name on it.
5. Mcintosh has great looks but uses cheap off the bin parts.

I can't think of another high-end company that have so many stereotypes about the brand. On the other hand I can't think of another audio company that has been in business as long.

IMHO - Mac is like Rolex - High profile, but not in the top ten of watchmaking or audio!
Mac & Rolex have 3 things in common:
1) High profile.
2) Very good re-sale value - Due to being overpriced to start with.
3) Neither are within the top ten of watchmaking or audio.
As one of the most respected internet watch dealers for the past 25+ years - I have come to the conclusion that Rolex pays the Swiss government to COSC certify their watches as I cannot recall ever seeing 2 Rolex watches that run within COSC certification.
My favorite watch joke:
If you buried me wearing a Rolex - I would wake up & kick your A$$!
