Re: McIntosh MA-6100 vs. MA-6200

72.136.100.173

In a word far better. I use the metered version of the 2100 and many Mc lovers find the 2100 and 2105 to be amongst the best. I've had it for about 6 years and the prior main amp was the baby brother MC250. The 6100 is based on the 26 preamp and while not the TOTL is very competent preamp and better than many. It is getting the notice it deserves more recently having been ivershadowed by the great C28. I am not a lover of the Mc integrated amps as they were more responses to market pressures than for the sound. As for the looks of the 2100, personal taste but seeing a btight chrome and black chassis and cage on the shelf actually is as prety and maybe more so than the glass and meters. I actually would have preferred the 2100 but the 2105 was local and had been completely gone through.
