Which integrated amp for rock/metal (and why McIntosh?)
UnderwoodHiFi has a few Wyred4Sound integrates that should be great for youhttps://www.underwoodhifi.com/specials

I had a pair and enjoyed them, but at the time Tweakaudio introduced their EVS1200, based on dual IcePowerAS1200 modules, which he highly tweaked. The price was about the same as the M700s, but with ~3Xs the power. A few months ago PS Audio introd...
