YES!
Mac gear is among the best. There's a lot of chic botique gear out there, but Macintosh is your all-around, dependable gold standard for excellent audio gear. AND it's made in NY state.
It's not compact though. Mac gear is well built with quality parts and is huge compared to most audio gear. Better make sure it will fit in your home if you are moving into a smaller place.
I don't know where you live, but my "local" Mac dealer, Auidio Classics will gladly let you audition any gear you plan to purchase - in a quiet, undisturbed room if one's available, and it usually is.
But yes. Mac gear is very nice to listen to whether it's tube or solid state.
