Why the hate for mcintosh amps?


Why dont people,like mcintosh? Who motivates this?

so what are the alternatives??

I always wanted some Mcintosh equipment for some reason and finally bought an amp and preamp several months ago.

Doesn't sound any better than the B&K stuff I replaced but like the looks and love the tone controls but way simpler for the old lady to operate so she isn't always bugging me.
