Owning a McIntosh integrated amp for a little over a year now, and loving it more each day. I have desired a Mc based system for nearly three decades. When finally deciding to purchase compared various brands some costing much more and some of course less. Definitely an audio enthusiast and have found that Mc gear hits the mark in many areas of satisfaction. This is a hobby where one picks their poison, too overlook McIntosh is to perhaps miss out on a truly wonderful world of reproduced music.
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh?
With the exception of some of there tube gear, not many really use this stuff(or admit to it anyway), I am mainly referring to there amps. They look pleasant, they look good on paper and have the price of high end gear, but I seldom hear anyone claiming to like or one day dreaming of owning McIntosh. I have never really listened to there stuff, no good word of mouth sort of scares me away from it, the only people who like it are those who sell it, an uncanny coincidence? I don’t know. Sorry it this has been covered many times in the past, I ran a search and could not find anything.
