McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer

Bigtex..I have an early 70s orange hand EcplororII along with a 1961 explorer 1 1016 and several other Rolex sports watches..I can come up with 6 or 8 watch brands better just off the top of my head so I would not get so cocky with your bolstering.

Oldhwy...your rude comments are uncalled for, yet again...

True McIntosh has more than a cult following .True the resale value is fantastic.True the build quality is pretty much there.I doubt for a lot there's no arguing that......but as far as being in the top tier of stereo makers worldwide they are not in the conversation.As a matter of fact they are not in the conversation of US makers either..Having said that I don't think we really  need another Mac post gettng lovers and haters butting heads again.
