Scratch your itch, it's the only way you will know for sure. McIntosh is not the be all end all of audio equipment, there is tons of great gear out there and only you will know what you like best. The posters above are correct, McIntosh makes great gear, I own a ton of it, but I also own and have owned a lot of other brands, many were better, many were worse, it all comes down to what makes you happy. Don't listen to all the bashers out there, there's a reason McIntosh has been around so long, but the only way for you to know for sure is to take the plunge and try other gear.
McIntosh
I am new to forum and I see many comments for and against McIntosh gear. I have 2 systems with MC2105 and MC2205 SS amps running Monitor Audio GS60 and PL200 speakers respectively. They sure sound sweet to me and I have no desire to change. But never say never, so is there anyone out there who had this vintage Mac SS product, thought it was great but then actually did side by side comparison with other SS amps, Bryston, etc and concluded they were wrong and the non Mac is just so much better. I have not done the side by side. Thanks much.
