Default Woodstock & McIntosh An Iconic Duo

The 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair is the most influential, transcendent, historic, and iconic concert in modern history. Countless artists were influenced by the artists that not only played Woodstock but the artists' Woodstock performances. How many times have we seen an electric guitar version of the USA National anthem? Sure Jimi Hendrix probably wasn't the absolute first one to do it and the song would no doubt be performed on electric guitar by others in the years since 1969 whether Hendrix did it nor not. However, let's not kid ourselves. The Hendrix version is the definitive version and has been imitated by and had an influence on so many artists.

McIntosh may be the most influential, coveted, and iconic HiFi brand ever created. Sure there are much bigger brands and more exclusive brands, but none of them can match McIntosh with respect to its storied history, revered products, and ability to transcend the niche of high fidelity audio.
It was only fitting that in August of 1969 McIntosh components were used to amplify the music that defined a generation and continues to be a major cultural influence to this day.
