Jeremy's vintage McIntosh and a couple of turntables

Hi Guys, I took some photos of the system and thought I would share with you guys. I have dreamed about a McIntosh system since my uncle introduced me to the Audiophile world when I was 11. Being an Artist I am drawn to the aesthetics of the vintage gear, especially old Macs and idler wheel, transcription turntables.

The system is

Jeremy... Great gear, meticulously setup; thanks for sharing!

Beautiful setup! Luv the vinyl!

I love vintage gear and this is a great example of a full vintage system. Excellent!

BTW, is it just me, or is the right side of the rack jacked up higher than the left?

What a wonderful room to kick back and listen :jazzplayer:

Thanks so much for the kind words guys, they are much appreciated.

Also excellent eye Chops, the right side of the rack is indeed higher then the left. I have an affinity for all things old, be it audio gear, cars or houses. As with all old houses in New Orleans we have a bit of a lean, we are built on a swamp after all. The flexirack allows me to level each self. Also the cd player is about an inch higher then the preamp, adding to the optical illusion.

again thanks for all the kind words

Jeremy... Very nice! Like the vinyl collection too. :thumbsup:
