The other day I was in the electronics store and saw a whole system, notably the famous 275. Love at first sight - these are the coolest systems I have ever seen.

I dissagree with @deskducker. I think McIntosh gears is great stuff. It looks so cools, and the stuff is built like a tank. They have kept this look for 30 years or so....and hopefully they wont change the looks. I herd that some lady who is married to a jewler is running the company now and is going to change the looks of the products.....WTF!!! what is she going to bedazzle it? I hope this is a rumor.

@musmann ; I agree, was being sarcastic.

@deskducker Not even close. McIntosh is ok at best. The tube stuff is nice but the SS is mostly junk.

I've had various audio equipment over the last 45 years, but bought a new McIntosh 60th Anniversary System (C22 preamp and 2 x MC75 power amps) and an MR88 tuner this spring. Money well spent.
