Ask yourself this: is it worth that much to you to get good build quality, but relatively the same performance for MUCH less than that? If so, go right ahead.

But, be aware that most amps don't have much sonic difference, so in the end you're paying $1000 for a name and build on something would cost you $500 for same performance without voltmeters and "McIntosh" on it. ...

I deal with the "getting a very good deal" alot.

But, forget the deal you're getting for a minute. Does the price warrant the product? Again, you know you can get similar products for half that price.

One, what is the rest of your system, and is it of high enough quality to benefit from a top end amp?

Two, do you have the extra cash to blow on it?

I dont give a shit who you are that is a great price for the amp brand new. Yes it wont sound different than most other amps but it is a fantastic amplifier.

If everyone was so concerned about price to performance then everyone would be running hifonics or profile. Not bad brands in their own right but who wouldnt rather have something that says Mcintosh on it.

So, you're telling me you'd pay $1000 for virtually the same performance rather than $300 or $400 tops?

Comparing hifonics to alpine prices is a little different. Neither of them cost $1000.

I know that if I paid $1000 for an amp I'd regret every minute of it. Heck, even if I were rich I don't think I could pay that much for that amp. You said it yourself. You're paying for a name.

If your going to pay $1000 might as well get a US Amps AX line have the same high quality of sound and bridgeability.

There are very valid points. If he is running a Clarion HU and Kicker comps then he isn't going to see a drop of improvement.

And will hold its resale value better than any other brand I can think of.
