Hi, I think I need some help on this one. What is that Classic Mac Sound? I was wondering how the MacIntosh C-22 reissue preamp would compete sound wise with something from Audio by VanAlstine or Nelson Pass or other makes less than 6000 bucks. I had the latest Absolute Sounds 2017 Editors Choice Awards issue. This is what it said; The C-22 has that( Classic Mac Sound ) made contemporary with greater transparency and much lower noise and distortion. So if you want to know what that classic Mac sound is the answer; might be less transparency with more noise and distortion. Then I wondered could Stevie Wonder walk into a room and tell you it was Macintosh playing because of a certain classic sound? Do those nice aqua blue lights have anything to do with the sound or the fantastic build quality? Just something I thought about. I was wondering what is that sound? Hey thanks alot for any replies....have a good one...Mark Korda |
