D-Blue and Mcintosh

My first post to show off one sweet watch I received for my 55th birthday from my wife. What do you think, it seems to go real well with McIntosh blue meters?

Congratulations! It’s a great watch
And I love your sound setup in the background. What speakers have you paired your macintosh gear with?

Thanks, yes she is a very good wife, a true keeper. As far as the name change I don't think so. The Daytona is my grail watch but I find myself really liking the feel of the D-Blue.

I purchased a pair of JBL 4365 a couple of years ago when they became available in the US market. Before that, I ran a pair of JBL 4430 monitors. I have always preferred the larger format speaker in particular JBL.

Thanks mailman. My closest AD is 3 hours away from me. It was pure luck that my wife called and they had a D-Blue in stock.

Thanks Jmca1979. What I have are a Mcintosh clock, a pair of MC1.2KW monoblocks and a C52 preamp. I make regular trips to the mothership Audio Classics in Vestal NY.
