Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear

It seems like all the high-end dealers I have bought from or talked to think that Mcintosh is living on it's past reputation. The 2 stores that carry it locally are more mid-fi stores than high-end. I have a friend that swears by it but he hasn't listened to his Mcintosh in over 2 years. What do you think?

Tea and crumpets would be nice, thank you.

Tennis is boring, old school, and a dinosaur sport.

Basically irrelevant.

Tennis actually requires more agility, concentration and endurance than almost any other sport known to man. Irrelevant, I should say not! Now Mcintosh gear on the other hand...maybe so:)

Dave,
I think you missed the underlying message.

audiophiles are not defined by the equipment they own.

there is large sample of brands from which to chose.

there is no reason to disqualify the attribute "audiophile" from being applied to a person who owns mac gear.
