Where is the value? Why would I drive to a dealer, not hear a piece of gear, have them make profit off me for literally doing nothing other than pushing paper, then I have to drive back to pick the gear up? Versus calling up an online dealer, getting a price, saying OK, then having the box arrive at my door? This isn't to take away from Mc dealers who do provide value like in home demos and such. It just rubs me the wrong way when dealers want to make money when they do zero work.

Agree. Try to support my local dealer, but he has no interest in having the gear/speakers I'm interested in on his floor. Happy to order for me with pre-payment. His business decisions do not work for me.

I did consider the MA252, but I need more inputs. Think it will be a popular item for McIntosh.
