Mcintosh xr 100 speakers

They are nothing special you can do way better

I agree with audiooracle. I've never liked the sound of McIntosh speakers.

It sure is a nice looking speaker. They seem to have high praise from a lot of people that have heard them. Have you hear them Audiooracle?

No I have not I was just looking on ebay and saw a pair for sale.
I will probally pass and keep looking;thanks for the feedback thus far.

Forget about the xl100 ,the xl 200 sound very good to me ,almost bought a pair before purchasing focal 1038 be’s .plus you can get a very good deal on them as well around 6-7.orig. 20 k new ,they play loud and also sound excellent at low to med, volume levels.

i've heard that mcintosh builds good pre amps and amps but speakers are not their specialty!

Old stereotypes die hard.

Although the aesthetics of the McIntosh speakers are not to my taste,  they compare well with other speakers in their price range.  The McIntosh of today is not your fathers McIntosh.  As good as McIntosh sounded in the 60 and 70's, they are leaps and bounds better sounding today of all their products including their speakers.

I have xr100's that I'm veryhappy but not ecstatic about. The xr50's are great though.
