Why the hate for mcintosh amps?

I never gave McIntosh a chance, hearing for years they sounded poor for doctors and lawyers, etc. Well, I heard a system in a store one day and I said this sounds great, live almost, he said it is our McIntosh system. My jaw dropped, long story short I have McIntosh longer than Levinson, Rowland, ARC, Luxman, and to this day my system just makes music so enjoyable. Seems you always kick the big dog, on top of sonics they are soooo reliable and hold their value.  

Omg, mc is a great speaker. Why people pay 20, 30k for monos astounds me.  Better spending on a preamp/speakers.

maybe debating tubes vs ss in their line has merit. But better doing a tube preamp.

Side comment - amp racks without casters is dumb.

Roxy maybe I was actually auditioning a computer’s internal headphone jack?  By the time I tried to fix misspelling The forum locked my comment.  

Macdonalds vs mcdonalds.  Easy mistake.

I’ve enjoyed my system. Purchased a McIntosh Mac6700 and paired it with B&W 805 D3’s about 5 years ago, added a Rel S/5 SHO sub and never looked back. As a bonus, my Wife thinks the equipment is more attractive then my previous stuff.
