When it comes to high-end audio equipment, few companies have cornered the market quite like McIntosh Group. The group has been a leader and innovator in the premium and luxury audio category for decades and today has a portfolio of the world’s most revered audio brands including McIntosh, Sonus faber, and Rotel. Scott Kerr speaks with McIntosh Group CEO Daniel Pidgeon about how McIntosh became a favorite among audiophiles and audio enthusiasts and why the pandemic drove consumers to invest more in higher quality audio experiences and the ultra-wealthy to install the best audio systems in their private jets and yachts. He also discusses its car audio partnerships with Lamborghini, Maserati, and Jeep. Plus: The backstory on how McIntosh amplifiers shaped music history by powering the Grateful Dead's legendary 'Wall of Sound' concert in the 1970s
