McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer

Can the McIntosh critics list the Mac components they’ve owned or Legitimately evaluated themselves if they are going to make a blanket statement about the brand? For example, which McIntosh amplifiers sounded veiled with the KEF’s?  Which component sounded like syrup? What specific product did you find satisfaction with after you came to your conclusion about McIntosh? Would be interesting to learn which components and from which part of history or current they are evaluating with such a generic statement. Those details would actually be interesting.

I remember in the old days, Mac reps would come to local events to test their Mac equipment and compare the results to any who would bring their equipment in to compete.  My Citation amp and power amp had much better numbers by far than Macs.  ....don't know how that relates to the reproduced sound, but in the numbers game, their performance was far below my stuff.

ocdmikey is the same clown who lost out on distributing of Denafrips products and went on YouTube blasting the company and their products.  Really appeared to be sour grapes. Maybe he pissed of Mac as well.

Truth be told for the longest time I dismissed Mac as just high priced home theater gear. I finally heard a SS Mac rig paired with some big ass Electrostats and I woulda swore it was a tubed system. Impressive.
