Default My first McIntosh Piece

Thanks to a phenomenal dealer with a great home trial policy, I'm the proud owner of a new Mc8207! I'm sure more Mc will follow in time!

Sorry for the two pics. My small children have small friends I've installed my system into a linen closet with electronic locks until everyone gets a little older!

JRRYAN, Congrats on your new MC8207. I have found it to be a great amp in my HT system. Much quieter than my MC205.

Thanks, PMCH!

Other than the know hum issue between the Marantz AV 7005 and the McIntosh (I've mitigated the issue safely), It integrates wonderfully into my system. It's unfortunate that Marantz knows about the issue, but does nothing about it...except to tell you to buy their amp 😄

I moved up from a Belles Hot Rod 3 channel and two Niles Si series amps for the surrounds. I set my system up more for 2 channel, but have noticed a marked improvement in my HT, also. It's a really musical amp. Couldn't be happier! I see more blue meters in my future 😂
