| Why the hate for mcintosh amps? I find it hilarious people say McIntosh is uber expensive and for Dr's and lawyers. If they knew much about the industry and prices of other high-end components they would definitely change their mind and find it very affordable in comparison. I... | |
| Mcintosh 462 stereo amp, good choice for b&w? Others Missioncoonery is a Mac hater so disregard his advice or comments. | |
| McIntosh Tube vs SS w/ Sonus Faber Aida II @missioncoonery Yes going back to your original post yes you owned a 402. I do also and sorry you had issues. Usually from what I've heard McIntosh customer service is pretty good. However, do you think basically your opinion of McIntosh has ch... | |
| McIntosh Tube vs SS w/ Sonus Faber Aida II @ei001h. Fantastic advice and obviously you know McIntosh very well. The naysayers continue to make fools of themselves because I bet 90% of them have never heard MAC or a properly set up system. There are people that don't like it legitimately a... | |
| McIntosh Tube vs SS w/ Sonus Faber Aida II @missioncoonery . If you want to hang on to Jay's opinion that's your choice but MAC is NOT one of the worst amps. He just didn't like the sound in his room. There is a reason they have been in business for 70 years. Have you owned or had MAC ... | |
| Brand new McIntosh MC462 or a Mint Pair of MC501s ? You may get some good answers on audio aficionados.com and audio karma. Have your searched MC462 versus MC501? | |
| McIntosh MC402 Mcintosh is midfi and Pass is considered hifi? Funny I find the opposite. Goes to show opinions differ. | |
| Mcintosh MC402 versus MC452 What the ???. | |
| McIntosh MC402 Excellent description phillyb. | |
| 100W+ solid-state amps known for beautiful mids @peguinpower. I had the exact opposite experience with the Pass X150.8 and Audio Research. I found the ARC to have wonderful mids and the Pass very sterile lacking any midrange magic. Could be system dependent but it's crazy how we have totally ... | |
| Bryston, McIntosh, Krell or Mark Levinson Out of the amps you mentioned I would go for the 352 but it depends on what kind of sound you prefer. | |
| Sonus Faber vs Wilson A friend of mine who lives in Miami visited the same dealer and listened to the same system. He said it was the best he's heard but like a previous poster mentioned, his room is set-up perfectly and pretty sure you won't get near the same results... | |
| Primaluna Evo 400 Preamp pairing with McIntosh MC1502 You can also replace the stock tubes in the EVO400 to tailor it to your liking. Start with the front 2 pair as they have more impact than the other 4. With the warmth of the tube amp I doubt you will need to. | |
| Primaluna Evo 400 Preamp pairing with McIntosh MC1502 I have a Evo 400 preamp and McIntosh MC402 amp and really enjoy the combination. Not familiar with your speakers or heard a MC1502 amp but I doubt you'll find it a bad match. | |
| Thinking to upgrade from Audio Research LS27 to LS28 I had a LS26 and was contemplating a LS28 and could have bought one at a great price. A dealer told me it is a very nice preamp and a step up but not substantially. He said I would be better off with a Primaluna Evo 400 and people were trading in ... |
