    They aren't what they used to be, not that I am enamored of tube gear, but serious audiophiles tend to hunt down the vintage "Mac" gear more than their new stuff.

    I saw myself as you knew me
    When the change came,
    And you had a
    Chance to see through me
    Though the other side is just the same
    You can tell my dream is real
    Because I love you, can you see me now."

    I'm running a McIntosh M2720 270 watt per channel for my two front Definitive Tech BP10 Left/Right speakers. Sounds GREAT!

    Could not afford the tube stuff when it came out. Now I almost can and can't find it!!! Or it can't keep up with today's technology insofar as HDMI switching etc.Sold an old pre-amp years back for that reason.
    It does produce too much heat though!

    Their new stuff is "OUT-OF-SIGHT" expensive!!!
