There is a big difference between having to revise previously announced availability dates and lying.
Agreed..

I understand Mcintosh is quite embarressed about the entire unfortunate situation.

+1, as well. I certainly don't call it a lie. I do call it an embarrassment, though.

Reading the features and looking at the back panel on the brochure of the MX150, I am assuming that the Aux 1 & 2 balanced outputs are assignable. Which means I can run the assigned balanced sub output to one of my subs and the Aux 1 balanced output can be assigned to run to my second sub, negating the need to use a splitter or "daisy chain" the two subs.

Am I correct in this assumption?

Yes, that is correct. The unbalanced Aux 3 & 4 outputs are also assignable.

So, I can't believe it has been this long and not a single post by someone that actually has the unit... Are they just not selling that well? I am dying to hear what people think about it (that actually have it)...
