McIntosh cosmetic designers must read my mind.
Two beautiful VU meters combined with a row of glowing tubes.
How freakin sexy is that? LOL

No company in history of audio has ever made so much money from a set of VU meters than MacIntosh!

You mean McIntosh.

If one guy here doesn't usually make typos, his name is Amim. ;-)

But, this is easily forgivable, because MacIntosh (Aple) is the direct opposite 'competitioner' of Microsoft (Windex). :)

* Methinks that those big blue McIntosh VU meters are just too "macho". They are a trademark for the playboy audiophiles.
But ouf, you can disengage them when the girls are gone.

Still, the first post from Michael has VU meters that are my favorite. MacIntosh VU meters are simply too overstated. ;)

Their pointers are gauging the power of my bottom end response. :eek:
