Mc‍Intosh, 60 years on!


Apple was founded in 1976; Mc‍Intosh Laboratories goes all the way back to 1949.

Computers get old really fast, while TVs age a bit more gracefully. But there's not much of a collectors market for old TVs or computers, at least by people who use them on a daily basis. Face it: computers, iPods, and TVs are disposable technology, while the useful working life of great audio designs is measured in decades. Many decades. Case in point: Mc‍Intosh's classic designs from the 1960s still fetch big dollars. Which is why buying really good stuff makes sense.
