Anyone heard about the new Mcintosh MC2301's?

How do the MC2301's sound compared to mono blocked 2102's and MC501's??

I just bought a pair of MC2301's from Lmche after comparing side by side it to a MC402 (my amp at home). I thought my 402 was great; WOW, what a substantial difference. That is what sold me. The sound field was so much larger and clearer than my solid state 402. The MC2301's are incredible, detailed, and beautiful. These will probably be the last amps I buy, they are that good!

What else do you have in your system Tropicaldiver? I have mine now but won't be ready to hook them up til next week, maybe in ten days or so will have hooked up all the new stuff.

Beerdraft, I also have an C2300 preamp, an Esoteric X03 CD/SACD, and a Michell Gyro SE TT. I use sonus faber speakers. I am looking to upgrade my speakers higher in the sonus faber line and also looking to upgrade my preamp to the c500 tube. That's the fun I guess is the excitement of upgrading. You will love your MC2301's!

I am also looking to move up in the McIntosh line. I presently own the MC-501 monoblocks, I have the C1000 due in Friday although I have never heard one, I decided to take a chance due to the McIntosh reputation I may elect to upgrade to the MC2301's in the very near future. I also use the Nova Physics Memory Player as my digital and the Ascendo C8 speakers.
