McIntosh Labs delivery issues


Can anyone provide an update on what to expect when placing an order for Mac's MC611 mono-block amps? I read last year on this forum they were backordered and running 6 months to a year for expected delivery.

Just to let you know, McIntosh amplifiers are not class A designs.

Okay everyone, lets pick 5 mono-block brands, all digital which fall into the same price point new as MC611. That should narrow down my choices of other brands currently still produced. Look forward to your opinions. It would be nice if we could match these amps with currant preamps. I will set back and listen.

I thank everyone in advance.  

@roxy54 fair enough. I remember certain McIntosh Class A/B amplifiers but as I stated in the beginning, my familiarity with McIntosh goes back to the 60's and 70's. Not to mention I'm beginning to get senile.

 

@farne230 I had an acquaintance who owned Krell and absolutely loved them.

Your not the only one "goofyfoot". When I owned the ML product two decades plus ago, I ran the system with a two channel digital amp manufactured by Mark Leviston, it worked very well, a huge amp, with a line-stage Audio Research preamp.
