Maybe too much of a good thing. The cup holder on top and the many tone controls, which should be in the firmware and not a bunch of "busy" knobs on the front. Would like to hear one at some point.

Love the aesthetics with the see through window and tubes, like the autoformers and power rating, like the replaceable DAC. I agree with Serge the name is probably the price

I can attest. When the shut downs began, my wife and I upgraded both our HT and audio only system with McIntosh and B&W.

I don't use integrated, but I do like the looks of this latest piece.

I just received the email from Mc. $14000 retail price. I guess it should have been called the MA14000.

Love the amp. Hate the price. 14K is a bit over the top for that. JMHO.
