McIntosh Labs delivery issues

roxy54 you don’t have to believe me just ask any of the McIntosh dealer store and they will tell you.

FWIW, ordered my 611’s in late March of this year.  At that time, the factory said lead time on 611’s was shorter than on other models.  Their guesstimate was two months then.  Actual delivery time was just under 4 months.  Well worth the wait—they are spectacular.   I did get antsy waiting and started looking at other options, but ultimately decided to stay with the 611’s.  Glad I did!

They are a great match for my Vandersteen Treo CT’s.

It looks like I am going to order the 611's and  tube preamp C2700 and AudioQuest Niagara 5000, power conditioner from my local authorized MAC dealer. what is left:  streamer, cd. player, AM/FM receiver and cables ect...  Everyone has been a great help. I will keep you informed on my progress. 

@farne230 that should sound great, having a tube preamp. I don’t think they make tuners anymore but I do believe they make a digital streamer. Anyway please give us your impressions once everything is running!

I put together a similar system, but ended up bumping up from the MC611s to a pair of Mc3500s Mk2s.  For a streamer, I got the Esoteric N-01XD. Clarus Crimson cables to connect.
