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

Wow...feel like I just walked in to the middle of a soap opera...

anyway, can anyone bottom line how McIntosh compares to Bryston in terms of sheer sound? Thank you in advance.

While shopping for a new preamp, I saw an interesting you tube discussion from two employees in a canadian audio shop I believe. Both were well versed in the PS Audio and Mc Intosh lines and were comparing a $9,000 Mc Intosh (forgot model #) vs. the $6,600 PS Audio BHK. They both thought the PS Audio was more musical and that 30 minute video was what put me over the top to buy the BHK. Coming in Thursday.

The brand image is still going strong, a buddy of mine either has his ears full of wax or is brainwashed deep down to his subconsciousness. He believes it's still super high end.

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

Jerryg123 ,

I agree. 
 
 McIntosh reminds me of W. C. Fields…”they’re nice to look at, but I wouldn’t want to haaaaavvve one…”
