Thread: McIntosh Management Shake Up

Saw this post on another forum so I claim credit for the find.

Audio Drama! Time for something fresh and retire some of the same-ol-same-ol antiquated perspectives. Enter in the Gen X Y Z + Millennials for much needed fresh perspective. This might add some much needed youthful energy. Although, one of the executives does not appear too old.

Side note: From my experience, I hope the vastly improve their bedside manner with customers. I typically have to turn to Dan [Double-D], Research and figure it out or turn to other forum members. The worst service was with the MB100 and MT10. I went directly to ClearAudio and they stepped up to the plate.

McIntosh needs to take some lessons from Dan!

Sigh

They have been producing a lot of entry level stuff of late at a quality level that is not traditionally McIntosh.

Steve, which products do you believe "producing a lot of entry level stuff of late at a quality level that is not traditionally McIntosh"? List them?

Change is good!

I don't think the shake up did any good. I had a MVP 891 which quit working 4 times. I took it to McIntosh in Binghamton. They repaired it for the 3rd time That repair lasted about 8 days. Called my dealer in Ann Arbor, Mi.. They got McIntosh to replace it with the MVP 901. It quit playing Bluerays last night. For the life of me I can't see how McIntosh can justify the prices they charge. Signed a fed up McIntosh owner.
