Mcintosh - Love Em' or Hate Em' ......Why?

I have owned new and old Mcintosh and loved my experiences with the product. Right now I have a MC-162 in my system and it sounds great! Very transparent and not too anylitical or fatiguing. It seems that everyone has such strong opinions about different Mcintosh products good and bad. I have had all positive experiences. I would like for people to share their opinions and experiences good and bad.

I have owned McIntosh gear since 1984. My current system consists of 2 MC7150 amps, C42 pre-amp, MVP831 dvd, MCD7008 cd changer, MR78 tuner modified, MQ101 equalizer to go with my ML2C speakers modified with Mac tweeter towers, + Sonus Faber Grand Piano's. I'm addicted to Mac. The sound, look, quality, engineering, and the company itself. Audiophiles go one way or the other with their opinions of Mac gear. That's perfectly fine with me. The products and company work for me. Their durablity is also is remarkable, which to me is very important. I've heard to many horror stories about guy's spending a good deal on a component only to have it being fixed a short time later. My problems with their products since 1984 have been minimal.

Well, I've owned Mac gear since 1984. I since have a MC7150, and an MC352 power amps. I have aa C42 pre, an MR78 tuner, a MC861 DVD player, an MCD 205 CD changer hooked up to an Electrocompaniet Dac, all hooked into a Tice power conditioner. I have Mac ML2C speakers with Mac tweeter towers with 16 tweeters, modified by Roger Russel, the designer of the speakers. I have Sonus Faber Grand Painos and Sonus Faber Concertino speakers. It sounds awesome, truly awesome, and all my friends tell me so!I love their reliability, look, sound and just everything about them.
