  i read that mcintosh has a patent on their autoformers.
Can you point us to where you read that, with a link?

Cheers George
Hello all,

If you can find evidence showing that Mac has a patent on their autoformers,I would like to see it as well.

I think they tried to but never succeeded.

I haven't owned any Mac gear in about 25yrs and I certainly don't miss it one bit even the tube amps I had.

We have a fair size audio club in my area and every once a while I get to hear a Mac product of some kind always reminds me of the sound I don't care for.

Properly pairing components together with Impedance matching in mind would never need autoformers,but I do know some folks that just love their Mac gear and wouldn't have anything else.

Kenny.

Rehashing this discussion again is generally pointless since the arguments on both sides have been made ad nauseam. Either way, the bottom line is component matching and not how a single component is designed in the audio chain.

g_nakamoto, do your research and buy what makes you happy.
