I don't know whether I am more disheartened or annoyed. I have now been waiting months for three MC611s. At the least McIntosh ought to be providing its dealers with updates on the anticipated manufacturing dates of their products. After all, they must have some internal assembly scheduling.

I'm 8 weeks in on my 1502 order with 4 more weeks to go so I'm told.

Collectively we are Les Miserables.

Week 16 of waiting for my MT10 here.

It should be here soon. Long before my C2700 and MC462 get here. Probably another 10 weeks for those if I’m lucky.

Les Miserables, indeed.

I asked about an MT10 for my brother. The dealer just laughed and said maybe by the summer. The backlog for the TT's is really bad.

FWIW, a member here has an MT10 for sale if your interested in foregoing new. The section of the forums that shows the for sale listings is closed off to non-subcribers

Another supply chain story: our business has been affected by the semiconductor shortage, a business we don't have anything to do with, but a customer of ours has halted orders for the time being until they can get semiconductors for their end product. When you think of all the parts that go into a hifi component, it's kind of amazing they or any other brand is able to get much out the door today. It's frustrating; I would take any time-specific estimate or promise with a large grain of salt and know from our experience that the manufacturers are probably a lot more interested in getting that component to you than you are since their revenue and thus maybe their ability to meet payroll is being affected.

Howdy everyone. I just ordered a MCT500 from my dealer to use with my C2700. He told me the current delivery estimate is 12 weeks, but will have an update after February 11th. Hopefully that update will not be an increase.

Hi All,

New to the forum. I ordered a MT5 turntable a couple of weeks ago and they said I would be lucky to see it by April probably much later. Cheers!

I hope that is correct because I ordered one back in December 2021 and they indicated a lot later than April of this year.
