I have seen some Interesting comments about Mcintosh lately

These comments come from here and a couple of other sites.

1.The only people that buy Mcintosh gear are one's that just don't listen.
2. Mcintosh is what rich people buy just like Mercedes Benz.
3. Mcintosh relies on generational buyers as a business plan.
4. Mcintosh is known for rebranding products and putting there name on it.
5. Mcintosh has great looks but uses cheap off the bin parts.

I can't think of another high-end company that have so many stereotypes about the brand. On the other hand I can't think of another audio company that has been in business as long.

Total BS, Rolex’s are as ugly and tacky as sin , to make SURE others know what it is ! Nobody with any taste whatsoever would wear one .
Haters are going to hate....
... they are ugly and heavy, I prefer something light and cheap,
I am not a huge fan of the Rolex look, but this is where function trumps form.  Rolex watched are waterproof to over 100m and can withstand 10 atmospheres of pressure.  Light and cheap need not apply.

Well, let's see, when was the last time you found yourself at 100 m or at 10 Atmospheres pressure?  Take your time, you don't have to answer right away.

taters,No. I do not, Ferrari are elegant and the people who drive them usually just like to drive, unlike Rolex buyers who simply have mafia level taste .

You can buy a Seiko or Citizen that will do that.
Buying a mega-buck watch is just plain foolish but if you little ego drives you to it at least buy an elegant Omega like mine .
