New Mcintosh C-22

At the place of purchasing a new C-22. Will be first Mcintosh piece and wondering what owners of this piece have experienced? Realize that numerous factors come into affect, cables, speakers, amplifiers, but thoughts and experiences would be appreciated, Thanks.

Thanks dweller, realize all the Anniversary editions are gone. My dealer indicated that the current C-22 is discontinued or more accurately about to be discontinued. As mentioned in earlier post they have one new factory sealed one left and their demo that I auditioned.

I'm using mine as a phono preamp and the sound is making me "giddy"!

Music does that to me and the C22 just sounds like music!

After a look at current setup and making a choice to start minimizing gear on the racks (2 DACs) I have decided to simplify. I ended up picking up a new C47. Appreciate all the feedback. Looking towards settling back this weekend and unboxing and setting up. Am very much taken with the simplicity of this piece.
