McIntosh Mc1.25kW vs Dan D'Agostino Progression Monoblock amplifiers

[PHC1]

Interesting video with impressions on MC1.25KWs vs D'Agostino Progression monos.

Once again it goes to show that experienced listeners will always have a preference, value certain characteristics and traits over others and simply hear differently.

I've experienced both McIntosh and D'Agostino in my own systems over the years, so I can relate to certain comments made in the video since the "house sound" will typically persist from one generation of products to the next if the designers stick to certain concepts and build philosophies. But this is not about my preference or opinions.

Interesting video because you don't often get a chance to hear an honest and objective opinion since the camp is usually very split either "for" or "against" McIntosh with the stigmas, stereotypes and prejudice.
