No God No! Say it Ain’t So!

No real need to change Mc already a reasonably priced mid+ level product. SF…who cares, many other brands out there in pretty cases that sound as good and better ! 

We all need to "take a deep breath" and relax for a bit.  The Bose acquisition is probably not going the way of the Clarion years.  Bose will probably assume the HR and accounting duties, but if they cheapened up the McIntosh product, they would be reducing the value of their investment in McIntosh.  The PE firm that last owned them were "hands off" with the company; I suspect that they wanted to retain or increase the value of their holding, which they probably did in selling to Bose.

Yes, perhaps we will see McIntosh at Best Buy.  But I will readily admit that I LOVE my Bose QC headphones and Open Air buds.  Both are very comfortable, very convenient and very musical, especially for classic jazz and classical.  The headphones are great for casual listening and travel, and the buds are great for dog walks.

...won't bother the spouse with this....would get a "So?  Is this earth-shaking?  Ours. or elsewhere?" response.....

...she likely remembers my 901's....*L*

'Vintage' will likely appreciate....New up to the future, likely by the Mac Mob that hangs here.

Yay or Nay...

A hit? *ouch!* ...or a miss? *"Whaaat?*

No dog in the hunt, so I'll just watch what y'all say.... ;) J
