MA6300

I never heard an MA6400 (I have an MA6500 that I enjoy very much), but I would avoid an MA6300 if you're after a traditional Mac sound. I purchased a 6300 when it was introduced in 2006. The preamp section is typical McIntosh but the power-amp section is very bright and in your face in the upper mids and treble. It eventually went back to the dealer. I had hoped it was a defective unit but I learned later it was operating as designed. A peculiar product in the McIntosh lineup.
