McIntosh is a good amp.
The Car amp sounds like any other Solid State amp.
Beside the warm sound of tube amps is nothing but disturtion. Still with McIntosh Ti dome tweeters the system will sound very harsh.
Their clip and compression system works better when you have a Mcintosh HU.
I have never hard their amps with the big transformers (look like 2 t*ts on top). But Mc thinks they are the best design and sound they have for the car.
When I met with McIntosh about running their product they told me they are OWNED by Clarion.
That's HOME and CAR. Mc amps are designed by Mc but the Mc HU are Clarions with Mc special features (round knobs, amp link). Mc Speakers were a special run for Mc. They gave the impressions that Clarion nor Mc designs or makes speakers sold with their name on them.
