Mcintosh amplifiers and preamps

50 years last June, what is there to say? I like Mac? OK, I LIKE MAC!

LOL I've always had Mcintosh and collected Mcintosh. 30 pieces or so..

Thoren too.

Good stuff, great quality, holds its value and is reliable. Just not my cup of tea... the sound leaves me wanting for more of something, just never been able to pinpoint exactly what the something is...

Its good,  there are better.... there are much worse.  You can't buy a brand that holds its value better,  plain fact.   I wanted to buy a c22.... couldn't see one in person anywhere close.   It was $6000, ended up buying a leftover NIB Zesto for $3500 so it for me was a no brainer.

Honestly, when I tried to find a dealer I kept getting directed to Magnolia....  I went to the closest Best Buy and their representation of McIntosh was so pathetic it almost brought a tear to my eye.  Sad....   

Why should it matter to you how I view them?

I guess it's that time of month again to evaluate the relative merits/drawbacks of McIntosh gear. Oh, and don't forget to mention how overpriced it is! 

For my part, I like it. Simple as that.
