How can anybody have a problem with an American made product that is 75 years old? 150 hard working folks build some great stuff for us to enjoy. What’s not to like ?. Oh btw, Mikey needs some professional grade help.

Yeah I have 2 pieces of Macintosh equipment. That I bought used .But i only can afford a Honda Civic. But that Civic is now $25,000 lol....

Haters are going to hate (so are the jealous who can’t afford Mac).  
Mcintosh have a strong sound through a decent speaker.

Another McIntosh thread 🤣. Pretty much similar to a cable thread. Gets old but bottom line you like Mac or you don’t. Most haven’t either heard Mac or properly matched. However, if you don’t like the sound move on. Pretty simple, but I can think the same about an amp another audiophile raves over. Why trash or make disparaging remarks? Overall, McIntosh isn’t overpriced when you compare it to higher end gear that doesn’t sound much better. It actually is quite the bargain. There’s a very interesting YouTube review of the McIntosh MC452. He does a fantastic but fair assessment that made me realize what a great amp it is. Not everyone will agree but made me realize performance per dollar is quite high.
