I endorse your response that none of these are dream systems, and your wisdom of "80% of what we will be using in 10 years isn't even invented yet." I had a spare HD for the MSXXX and never needed it. It's advantages are many, but it's biggest drawback is getting to playlists or artists quickly. Sonos and Apple Airplay based systems are leaders in this area. Still, It had great fidelity. The king of all music servers for high resolution audio via server is still Meridian. The Focus and Swim features access your music or the Rhapsody music service like none other. Sadly, its price was my limiting factor and one can purchase several Sonos Connects/Play devices and a large RAID Storage system for whole house sound.

From my standpoint, I think the issue is if/when something dies - how do I fix it. Boxing it up and sending it off to some company that may or may not support it down the road sounds like a less than ideal plan......

While I do enjoy my MS750 - and you may be right. I started to type a response about my thoughts on this topic, but the debate will be one of opinions and I dont want to sound like I am picking a fight. More, if there is a problem, I just want to be able to try and fix it myself. I agree with Larry's post - and I want to be able to enjoy it for years to come - just looking to get the most out of my investment and learn.

The server/jukebox market is constantly changing. Its almost impossible to get a level of satisfaction with out some one creating an even better solution. Sent from my iPad using A.Aficionado Last edited by o0OBillO0o; 03-27-2013 at 07:34 PM. |

There is also a known issue with the power supply on the MSxxx servers. I think it is a capacitor that fails causing the hard drive to skip data or not boot. Other than that, there have been few issues related to the many thousand of MS300 and MS750 music servers in service. Hopefully yours will last for many trouble free years of enjoyment. My MS750 has continued to work perfectly after four years of daily use.

cnguyen777.......This is not new news. Escient was the provider of service for McIntosh on the MS300 and MS750 before going out of business. Panurgy is now the service provider for the MS300 and MS750 music servers. It has been like this for years.
