Why No McIntosh Recommendations?


As I read, and continually read through posts, nobody really talks to McIntosh Products, or recommends McIntosh Products.  Why?  I can understand why they are not getting their just due.  I think their sound stage is incredible and the tube products offer incredible warmth.  I own the 2600 PreAmp, 2152 Amp, and MT5 Turntable.  I love what they do for my Sonos Faber Serafino’s.  I’m a big fan.  Why don’t y’all talk to them more.  Now I know we all have our bias.  And I know that they may be out of many price ranges, but they are wonderful products, in my ears.  

BTW - Currently Listening to Hugh Maskela’s Hope on a Quality Pressings Release!  Sounds superb!  Excellent recording whether you are listening to a CD or a high quality a 180 Release from the original master tapes.

To Stevecutler, Mac has been successfull selling their products with the glass front since the 70s, why change it or why change now? You wouldn’t want to put a polycarbonate windshield on a Ferrari would you?
I took the leap to Mcintosh product a while back. I have a C2500 pre-amp. It beat out AR, CJ and VTL. It has two internal phono sections, MC&MM plus multiple line level inputs and an internal DAC.

The first great stereo I heard was in 1971 and it was a simple Macintosh pre and power amp... It changed my life... I am 63 now and finally got a Mac pre but had to buy a A21+ as a amp due to cost... The preamp is a C41 and is so smooth and quiet and pleasing it's relaxing and peaceful up here now. I went thru a few good pre's but in the end I knew it was going to be a Mac that would work for me. I want simple and clean and that is what I have now... it has taken over a month for the amp to settle down but everything is there. I wanted to go all Mac but with the power I needed to run my speakers { i had a MC 7100 but my speakers ate it up lol } I couldn't afford that road. Maybe one day... The A21+ is amazing and I am happy........ would like the blue light show to be honest! :)
