Good to see die hard mcintosh fans. I own a mcintosh mc402 solid state power amp and a c2600 tube preamp. Mcintosh equipment is built for life otherwise it will last a hell of a long time. Although I have other equipment that to my ears sound cleaner and more detailed. Example my parasound hca 3500 with a parasound p6 preamp. I also have a audio research sp-3 with a krell fbb-300 that destroyed ever piece of audio I have musical wise. Do I believe my other Audio equipment will outlast my mcintosh hell no!!!. Regardless what piece of audio equipment I own or will ever own in the future. It’s all about ( my ears ) . What sounds the best to my ears. Will I ever sell my mcintosh gear hell no. The build quality is second to none. I know I got my money worth with mcintosh gear
Looking for a McIntosh amp that gives a great example of the “McIntosh Sound”
What is a good vintage or newer amp that has that “McIntosh sound” everyone loves. My budget is $3k and I want to stay solid state. I don’t want to debate McIntosh, I am looking specifically for McIntosh. The amp will be powering JM Lab Mini Utopias.
