Does this image give you claustrophobia?

What a great set up.... in about a fourth of the space it should have. I literally get anxious looking at it. 

You?

I don’t get a claustrophobic feeling at all. I saw another picture of the guys listening room in another ad and it is actually quite deep. I think it’s the cameras close up that gives you that feeling.

 I have 2 McIntosh systems and listen to both on a daily basis.
Julie Mullens of TAS heard the new McIntosh speakers with even more mids and tweets driven by McIntosh equipment and was gushing over them. Go figure.
I heard a pair at Audio Classics back in early June when I had to switch my preamp.  I thought they sounded quite nice,  However, nowhere as good as my GE Triton References.  I think they were upwards of 50K for a pair whereas my T Refs were 8500 a pair.  McIntosh should concentrate on electronics.  They already have Sonus Favor under their umbrella.
