    Regarding the MCD1100, I guess they are dropping the idea of a separate DAC, and transport, and going with the single box configuration. Perhaps the success of the MCD500 helped make the decision to go that way.

    The MC452 looks like a MC352 with handles. I am not sure about the look of the handles, but maybe it will grow on me.

    I'm seriously looking at a MC452 + C2300 right now. If I end up purchasing, will report back.

    Looks like the MA7000 Integrated Amplifier has been out for little over a year now. Maybe there is something new, I just don't know about it.

    Designed to deliver a continuous 250 watts per channel, the MA7000 Integrated Amplifier is the most powerful integrated amplifier McIntosh has ever offered.

    I think I was aware of this one, as well as the 2275 which also looks great...
