The latest product introduction from McIntosh feels like the epitome of irony. While we HiFi Rose users are unable to utilize McIntosh’s iconic “Blue” VU meters, due to trademark infringement, McIntosh freely stirs up confusion in the HiFi world with the naming structure of their new products—RS150 and RS250. Oh, the irony!

I guess the names are not unique and who knows, might not be trademarked or trademark able (if such a word exists).
Either way, I’ll continue to play my RS130 through the Mc DA2 DAC in my pre-amp. To my ears, it sounds best via USB.
Audiophiles care about McIntosh like little boys care about dinosaurs
In Europe the brand isn’t that big, I’ve heard it and seen it and I’m not impressed by the sound nor the looks. Maybe it’s because I’m not a little boy anymore.
