RE: My one McIntosh Experience: Rich warm bloated flabby and veiled

Posted by hifi heretic on May 25, 2013 at 08:56:00:
Wow, you attribute all these sonic characteristics to Mac amps yet nothing shows up in its measurements or specs that would hint at these qualities (or lack thereof).

Why would McIntosh be so lackadaisical as to make such an amp? What don't they know about amp design that you know?
