Can't speak for McIntosh, but I'm waiting on a Pass Labs INT-25 to be built. When I spoke to the factory they told me they are as busy as they've ever been, so the same is likely true for McIntosh. Putting on extra shifts, expanding production and all that entails (training new employees, management of the extra shifts, etc.) is a big deal for companies as small as McIntosh and the rest of our hobby's suppliers, so likely not just supply-chain issues. From what I'm reading the supply chain issues have been pretty well handled and are getting better. And, our hobby has very few "dedicated" parts. We are simply too small a segment of the market and use mostly 'off-the-shelf' parts adapted to our use.

Ordered an MHA 200 on 6/22/2021. It arrived 9/8/2021. About 2 1/2 months. Maybe things were better at that time.

I don't mind the waiting so long as I know going in about how long it will be.

I just listen to this when I start getting antsy about it:

I decided a few months back i’id get a pair of mc2301. This isn’t exactly ‘new’ so been looking at used market. Very little came up and either it did not work for me or it sold very fast. Last week contacted my Bay Area dealer, I cannot get a commitment that i’ll get it by JUne, when i’ll move.
I work high tech networking, the sort of backlog we have now is something like 5X more than I have seen in 35 years, so I get it. Strange times.

You are going to love the MC2301s once you get them. Stellar sounding for sure.

Certainly not limited to McIntosh - I ordered some gear from Moon by Simaudio and the quote was 2-3 weeks and it took 6 weeks. They are vertically integrated like McIntosh and had disruptions in packaging supplies.

My Boulder 1108 was quoted 4-6 weeks in September and ended up taking 12. Everyone has backlog and supply problems.

Tony, that is Sooo encouraging for those of us who wait,...and wait,...and wait.

(I feel like I'm in a Casablanca Movie!)

I don't think any companies backlog is a bad as Magnepan. Last April I ordered a pair of LRS. I was told 17 weeks. when I didn't hear anything I called at week 19 and was told my pair had about 6 more weeks out until made. This was a backlog of 6 month or so. I cancel order at that point I had lost interest in the speaker. I am currently trying find out when I am getting my C2700. The dealer threw out mid march.
