Thanks for doing the unboxing & the demonstration of this unit.

I had C22 I bought used in the late 1970's and when the tubes failed, I set it aside till I could get new tubes. Months turned to years. When I looked for it, my wife told me she had sold it in a yard sale. I'm sure someone got one heck of a deal.

You still talk with your ex-wife?

Thanks for reminding me why I feel so fortunate to have no wife. 😂

I love new stuff. That's one of the greatest things about McIntosh. It has so many products for so many price categories and is probably the best brand with which to upgrade. Not only is the stuff built very well and sound fantastic but as you move up the range, you get more of what you love and it retains its value better than most other components. Very few of us are in this JUST for the sound, we also like the toys aspect about this and this company checks all the boxes.

Great review - love the Mcintosh unboxings and great production quality and commentary as always!

[@bmwguy2009]

[@leifang1680]

What is the difference between mk4 and mk5? Other than cosmetic changes

[@Skye_the_toller]

Look toooo vintage for me😜

[@LaGataNegra3073]

Its exactly like the c27. Except it looks different. It doesnt have this. Nor that. Nor this nor that. The mustang is exactly like an f150. Except it doesn’t have a bed. Is lower. Has only 2 doors etc. but yeah. Exactly the same.
