My System's Weakest Link - What Say You...
First off, McIntosh bashers need not respond. The synergy of this system is outstanding.
I think I have my system pretty well fleshed out now, and love what it is doing for me. But, I have my eye on my weak link. I have a few thoughts, but I'm Interested in objective, and somewhat random comments from some insightful folks here.
My Habits: Love listening to vinyl most of all. Don't know exactly but have over 3000 LP, I think, and keep getting more. Obviously do lots of streaming too via Tidal > Roon. Also on thousands of CDs of varying quality.
My Room: Open main floor Floor plan to the kitchen and formal dining room. Open space has 9 foot ceilings, with fabric chairs and carpeting. No need for any room enhancement identified. Still sounds great. Lucked out on that one.
Anyway, where is what I have:
"Long haired, freaky people, need not apply" or dismiss my enjoyment of McIntosh. [btw - anyone remember that song quote?]
