Default McIntosh 2301's and 2300 Review in TAS

I just received my December Absolute Sound in the mail. I see that the 2301's and 2300 have been reviewed by Harry Pearson starting on page 146.

I am heading out the door and will read the article later this evening.

It was a good article. It is refreshing to see a mainstream review of McIntosh. I jumped right to the Harry Pearson McIntosh article, I still need to work throught the rest of the mag. Looks like some good stuff, including a review of the new remastered Beatles albums.

I was in a Best Buy yesterday and they had about 10 boxes of the Mono's on the shelves, didn't see any stereo.

Have I missed the review -- haven't picked up a magazine in several months -- not that I care, -- more curious if anything if the MC2301's have made it to print in the recent month(s).
