Does Mc Intosh make reference gear


I have been reading the current thread here about Mc Intosh being bashed. People are saying they use cheap parts or have a 70's type of sound. I don't know the Mc line that well. Do they make a reference line? If they do why don't you ever hear about it? If they don't maybe they should. I'm sure audiophiles would give more props to Mc Intosh if they made some cutting edge products.

Do they make reference gear , I think so . They are not cutting edge , but , your gear will still be working 30 yr from now .
Pops,

If you look at that site there are a lot of people with very expensive systems. I'm sure you will find one upsmanship there as well.
Some will and some won't not isolated to McIntosh ... it's a personal decision.

IE. Not a fan of Spectral so not reference to me but is to many which is perfectly fine.
