McIntosh vs. Vincent


I’m in the market for an integrated hybrid amp. I’m trying to decide between the new McIntosh MA252 and the Vincent SV-237MK. Price difference aside, any thoughts on how these two amps compare to each other?

The Mcintosh MA 252 is an okay sounding fantastic looking intergrated amp, one of our dealer friends sell it, the Vincent is a German designed/Chinese amp that kicks like a mule with a great tight bottom end, we used to sell the Vincent and were very impressed by their gear, it is a bit less warm then the Mc but I think you would find the Vincent to be far better in most regards.

You should look at a Unison Reserach product they will easily beat the Mcintosh and the Vincent gear. The Unison Reserach gear is famous for superb circuit design, Italian craftsmenship, and outstanding sonics. 

Unison has been making outstanding hybrid tube/solid state gear for years.

Thanks for the reply audiotroy. Any particular Unison model that may be in the same bracket as the Vincent SV-237MK?

Thanks for your input as well, chrshanl37. Very helpful.
