As a professional musician, I can tell you without a doubt that there is nothing like owning a Mac. I bought an MA 6100 in 1976. I still have it to this day. It still outperforms anything produced from over seas in its class. I'm constantly offered more than double what I paid. It handles high resolution music with ease. And here's the kicker. IT'S NEVER BEEN SERVICED. So yes, they are worth every penny you pay for a mac. It's an investment. A very worthwhile one.
McIntosh - is it that great?
I'm just curious if McIntosh gear is all that great. How does their older power amps compare to new products from other high end manufactures? Are there any products I should stay away from. I like the idea of owning vintage McIntosh stuff. Most of their stuff seems pricy. Is it because it's that good or do people just like to collect their products. thanks for you opinions--Matt
