Does Mc Intosh make reference gear

Those seen leaving Al Gore's place were observed to buy cartons of Camel cigarettes no doubt due to the subtle, golden camel logo on the front of those amps. Steganographic clues abound if you look close or long enough at something.

Let us not forget that Al Gore's family fortune was in tobacco and this neatly ties in all the conspiracy theories about Al Gore.

You gotta admire the guy.

I remember quite clearly lusting after mcintosh gear in high school in the late 70s, going to the big time hifi shop and being mesmerized. When I had some coin to be able to put towards a decent system there were a few places that seemed to offer the same stable of products, mcintosh, B&W, rotel, etc. Having auditioned those brands and some of the less well known but well respected it seemed to me that more could be had $ for $ with other options. I will never forget hearing a B&W/Mcintosh demo and asked the salesperson to turn off the subwoofer and he said it was already off. I went over and put my hand on it to feel it vibrate and he then turned it off.

I have a good friend that has a mcintosh set-up and just doesn't do anything for me for whatever reason.

Is that a one or two hump camel? Does it look nervous?

Do they make reference gear , I think so . They are not cutting edge , but , your gear will still be working 30 yr from now .

Pops,

If you look at that site there are a lot of people with very expensive systems. I'm sure you will find one upsmanship there as well.
