Cool stuff!
I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Dam Got me all excited about seeing a Mac computer for no reason. :)
    If life had more tubes it would be a lot smoother.

    Never met a Macintosh speaker that I liked.

    Me neither, the back end gear is where it's at McIntosh. Stick to what you know.

    Why is the dude naked? (or worse yet, why do I assume he is) I find that one disturbing, made me think of Micah for some reason, but not a sock to be found.

    Cheers,

    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Have to agree with you on this. Even though I'm a die-hard McIntosh guy, their speakers seem flat and lifeless to me, even the TOL left me wanting, for everything!

    I went to House of music in San Fran area---the largest mac dealer on earth. I listened to everything...didn't like any of the speakers. Lifeless was it. I did at the time, have a very nice mac amp and pre. Those were quite nice.

    I was wondering the same thing..but I don't want to go all Freudian and start talking about the speakers as Phallic symbols....etc.--and what's with the TATOO?

    What the hoo.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_Phallic_Building_contest Maybe this inspired the ad??
