Do people buy MAC gear for the blue meters


I have a friend of mine that owns all MAC gear but never listens to it. He says he just bought it for the glass front and blue meters. I have a feeling a lot of people are like my friend.

I own 501's and the blue meters are secondary to the smile tattooed on my face!
Taters, I am interested in your friends gear should he decide to sell. What units does he have?
Sit,

He is a hoarder. He never sells anything. He has so much stuff he lives in his garage.

I bought my Oracle turntable because I thought it was beautiful. Fortunately, it sounded great. Years later bought a Michell Gyrodec turntable because I thought it was even more beautiful than the Oracle (younger woman), it sonded good too. I would love to own the Sonus Faber Stradivari....never heard them, but they are gorgeous. All things being equal, I'll take the better looking stuff every time.

Don't know about the blue meters but I was at a store yesterday spending some time with some speakers for fun and I really, for the first time, got to play, touch, feel and listen to the SACD/CD player and it was amazing, beautiful, built like a tank and perhaps for the fist time I see where some folks might be attracted. It sounded quite nice as well.
