McIntosh MB25 Bluetooth Transceiver & Digital Audio Cable

[A-Line]

My new McIntosh MB25 Bluetooth Transceiver arrived on time today. This unit is rather small but sonically excellent.
Sound wise it's comparable to my Magnum Dynalab MD90t tube tuner.

Sorry techies I'm not a EE so I'm only posting opinions regarding sonic attributes vs a detailed electronics report...

The new MAC digital cable seems to be perfect match for my MB25 as well as my iPod.

Right out of the box streaming European radio stations and YouTube vids are a breeze.
Those seeking a high quality Bluetooth streaming device should consider the new McIntosh MB25 paired with a McIntosh Digital Audio Cable.
Highly recommended!

The local McIntosh dealer got in a couple of vintage McIntosh tuners in for trade yesterday. Turned out to be a MR74 & MR77 that appeared to be in great shape so I bought them both at good price. The dealership is going through both tuners to make sure that they meet or exceed specs. They should be ready for pickup by Friday afternoon.

My Magnum Dynalab MD90t is officially retired after 14 years of faithful service. I currently have 5 McIntosh tuners now that I've added the MR74 & MR77 and will rotate each of them through my 2 systems from now on. There's still plenty of free quality music where I live on FM radio so...

No more upgrades for me as I'm extremely happy with the sound from my 2 setups..
