Jeff, I hardly think I should be ashamed of myself. I have asked you repeatedly for an explanation of your "skewing" of capacitor statement and you keep skirting around the issue. Now you are telling Matt that he should take his MC60 amps and redesign them based on? I hope Matt has enough sense not to listen to this nonsense. I think that the engineers at McIntosh Laboratories have a bit more knowledge than some hacker.

Jeff, I'm trying to figure out if your just a misguided soul that actually believes the nonsense that you spew or if your just a prankster that likes to rile up forums. I do know you have been kicked off of forums for your behavior.

Matt, it sounds like you have an ass kicking system, Model 19's on MC60's! I'm using HeathKit AS101's, basically Altec Valencias in a much nicer cabinet powered by my MC40's. We share much of the same hardware and I'm using a set of Model 19 crossovers that I built. My latest addition is a VTA SP9 preamp so now I'm all tubes. That really made a nice difference in the separation of instruments, I'm hearing a lot of stuff I never knew existed before on recordings I am very familiar with.
Maybe someday I'll come across a deal on some 19's, I'd like to hear what the additional cabinet volume does. It was Altecs premier consumer speaker and to this day still ranks right up with the best that is out there.
