McIntosh MA252 Hybrid Integrated Amp

I find McIntosh a bit fake with awful green LEDs and hype. Look at the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Integrated with a Schitt Mani phono.

I was also curious to how much grunt this amp has. Can it grab control and drive relatively in efficient speakers?

On the McIntosh forum, the guys that have the MA252 absolutely LOVE it.  Green LEDs or not, that has nothing to do with the sound and the Mac is definitely better than a cheap Schitt Mani phono and has 3 times the power of a Prima Luna HP integrated.  The resale value is also much better as well.  Lastly, it sounds fantastic as I heard it at Audio Classics.

Tried it out for awhile. Is all SS. Even my dealer said the tubes are just jewelry.  Ended up with the mc275.
