2006 McIntosh MA6500 new unwrapped in box..value?
Even if it is a dealer, there may be no warranty, too old. Some companies will limit the time based on dealer invoice date. Not sure if McIntosh does this. If not a dealer, no warranty, for sure.

Yes, introduced in 1999 with original retail of $3100. 
Speaker recommendation
The Wharfedale Jade 3 is another speaker that has a 86db sensitivity rating. So again, this will have the same volume problem in a large room like the MMG's.

Wire Tangle?????
This thread jogged my memory when I was young helping my father in his TV shop. We would go out on a call for bad TV reception from the antenna we had previously installed. The problem was the excess antenna lead in wire neatly coiled hanging on t... 
Dynaudio C1 II owners - how loud can you go?
Considering the scenario of heavy bass, loud volume, and a "pop", I'm thinking "bottoming out" of a woofer in one of the speakers. This occurs when there is extreme excursion of the woofer cone, and the voice coil hits the back of the pole structu...
