It's a non-autoformer model, so it doesn't have Mac's signature lush sound. Which, according to your experience with the M42, you may prefer.
Mcintosh MC162
Hi,
I am about to purchase a MC162 power amplifier. I can not test the unit A/B wise at home. My other amps are Quad 606 mk2 (and 909), and some remarkable old integrated amplifiers. I had a Mcintosh pre-amp before, but to be honest, I didn't like it at all ! The C42 sounded very processed and very slow. Mac preamps are not my thing !
I want to hear some MC162 owners opinions : how do you like your unit compared to other amps you had ?
Thanks !
