[QUOTE="only126db, post: 4532130, member: 586915"] I got a reply from McIntosh.... Joe, McIntosh designs and builds the car amps in our one and only factory in Binghamton NY. The car amps have the same performance as our home amplifiers but are repackaged for the automotive environment. Is the McIntosh amp total overkill? From a performance perspective in the car environment probably yes. We do believe we build the finest amplifiers in the world and there will always be small but dedicated market for the best. We offer factory tours to the public if anyone would like to visit and see the process of making McIntosh products. The factory is located in Binghamton NY and tours may be scheduled by calling ahead at 607-723-3512. To say that McIntosh amps are built by some other off shore company is simply silly and untrue. Thank you, Ron Cornelius, McIntosh I also went to D&M Holdings and their brand list includes: Denon Marantz McIntosh Boston Acoustics Snell Acoustics Escient Denon DJ Calrec Allen & Heath D&M Professional and D&M PSS I saw no mention of Profile Consumer Electronics anywhere.....and no mention of any brands besides Profile on Profiles site.... Where did benchchambers80 get the info that these two brands made by the same company or even remotely close in any design?? Or anyone else who got this info for that matter.... I own neither,never have most likely never will.....But where does this info come from?? [/QUOTE]
