Yes! McIntosh! I almost forgot about them! The ultimate in overpriced "status symbol" in the audio world! (i.e. $7,000 home audio AM/FM Tunner!) while your at it, get some bang and olufson, for no reason either,
Why is it that the older guys all chose proven older equipment, and the young guys just listed off the most costly equipment on the market???? (mostly stuff that 90% of ppl havn't even heard of, and 80% of the ppl who know about it havn't even heard it perform) Just cuz a speaker won an SQ comp. dosn't mean that you can make it do it! They dont time allign themselves you know! And ion top of that, where the hell do they sell it?? Your gonna spend $600 on a pair of 5 1/4's off of the internet, just cuz some guy in the states one with 'em? that dosen't sound like a good investment. Was the marketing campaign that good????? You should all know that its the install that makes the real difference! I dont know what I'd do if I spent $15,000 like some of you and had a great looking, really expensive system, and had it sound like crud. I'm not putting anybody's choice down, I'm just questioning your reasons for choosing those products.

If money were no object I would buy a brand new black Mercedes G Wagon. Then I'd take all the interior and glass out of it and put it in the dumpster. 2" lexan windows, 1/2" plate steel interior with only a steering wheel and a couple of pedals left. 4 quad juggs, 32 kicker 1200.1's, 64 turbo start 16 volt batteries,3 ohio generator 200 amp alternators, one panasonic 883 and a crystal line driver. Then put some 24" spinners on it. I can already hear the stuck up yuppie punks crying. God I love Db drag.
