Cambridge Audio 840a vs McIntosh MA6500.


I currently have the 840a, and am demoing a McIntosh 6500 right now. They both have a distinctly different sound, but I can't really decide which I like better. I would assume the Mc would have a much more accurate sound considering their price and their reputation. I don't know though, the treble just seems better to me on my 840, maybe I'm just used to it's sound since I've had it for so long. So far I haven't been able to justify getting the 6500 yet.

Also the speakers I am using are B&W 805s.

I agree with Tpreaves. Everyone hears a little differently. Just trust your own ears.
Have you listened and compared the 2 integrateds in the same systems? If you have then its a fair comparison. If not it is not.
