McIntosh amps in "Elementary"

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Was watching Elementary (TV Show) today, and noticed he had a McIntosh Processor and Amp with some Energies it looks like.

I know this contributes nothing, but I thought it was pretty cool that they paid attention to small details like this.

if you watch the departed, Matt Damons character also has McIntosh equipment in his apartment. You know you are obsessed when...........

I noticed the McIntosh gear last night (probably a paid ad since there was a long closeup on them) and was trying to figure out the speakers, which he has as towers as wellas monitors in his built-in bookcases flanking the fireplace. They look like Energies to me too. It was cool to see the McIntosh gear, but I don't think anyone with those speakers would have McIntosh and vice versa.

I don't know man.. CF-70's have a distinct look.

Just went back to the vid, they held the frame on the pre for a few seconds, couldn't see the amp though.

Yup. I have to agree... CF-70's. I took a really good look at them. Deeeeep cabinets. The show was definitely not too interested in you figuring them out. The only speakers I can think of that are more simplistic in styling would be a set of Canton Karat's in black.

Glad, I'm not the only one who was wondering about the speakers. biggrin.gif AND I have been wondering for weeks if anything more... "obvious" was going to come of the McIntosh components, and BOOM there you go.

I have to say, McIntosh's look even better on TV than in person. I suppose if there was a front panel great for TV, it would be McIntosh. Nice HDTV closeup, I even paused the TiVo to see the settings biggrin.gif . Although, it COULD be even better in a dark room, I suspect.

Jack Nicholson has McIntosh amps and speakers (I think) in his apartment in "As Good as it Gets."
