Back in the day - I wanted the Mac C32 Preamp...
I never got the light show allure of Mac products. Especially when I actually heard them.
End of that.
Never got the hokey block diagrams painted on the top of certain components either. Did folks have trouble figuring out how to use them? As for me, I lusted after Audio Research and Mark Levinson gear. Far classier looking and sound-wise were in a different league altogether. I think the best looking (and one of the best sounding) preamps of the 70s was the JC-2:
I've been an Acoustat fan ever since I met Jim Strickland and Bob Rieman back in '76 when they brought a pair of the new model X to chez Dr. Cooledge for the TAS review. Still use a pair of 1+1s in the garage today.
