you maybe right, but on first exposure it seems to be quite close. I will report back later whith more a more definative experience. Plan to listen to the Crown in my system for about a week or so and then swap in the McIntosh.

OTOH am very tempted to bridge the Mac to mono and use it as a center channel amp for my HT setup. Would have to believe it would do an awesome job on dialogue.

But in my experience, and I dont ever try to suggest Im an expert, is that front end equipment, turntables, CD players and DACs as well as speakers seem to affect what I hear more so than amps in and off themselves.
