| Gamut Lobster Chair It's very modern and beautiful, and I'm sure very well made, but I wouldn't want to be without the adjustability of my recliner, especially the adjustable power headrest. Before my current recliner, I had one like this (not nearly as high quality)... | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer I answered another poster who asked what the Mac sound is, and I wanted to add something to that.

| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer I didn't say it was an insult, I just wanted to clarify what you said. As far as Jay is concerned, I have zero interest in his opinions of audio gear. His opinion of McIntosh gear is one of the reasons why. | |
| MSB DAC's Popularity Most members likely can't afford them! | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer Actually laoman, you said that it did not sound good and was not good value for money. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Morning Phase is a great album. | |
