For the Love of Music ....\u003c\/strong\u003e by Ken Kessler. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780978723606.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fascinating history of an audio legend “Even though this book is published by McIntosh itself, it is as candidly revealing as any business history I have read from an independent publisher. McIntosh: “…for the love of music…” is not a happy-slappy PR puff piece but a genuine history. Indeed, I found the behind-the-scenes business chapters to be absolute page-turners…. “As we’ve come to expect from Ken Kessler projects, the production values are lavish. The cover and book and the book’s entire color scheme reflect McIntosh’s black-and-gold glass faceplates and blue meters. The photographs, photo editing and layout are fittingly world-class. There is even a bound-in gold ribbon for a bookmark. In addition to a foreword and introduction, there are 19 chapters of content, four appendices (including a timeline), an index a bibliography, and lists of McIntosh products by model number an name. “Well done. Highly recommended — even if your amplifier doesn’t sport big blue meters.” Excerpts from book review by John Marks, Stereophile magazine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mcintosh Laboratory Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986546061365,"sku":"ByrdShop_0978723600","price":451.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780978723606_5ef4ed84-37f1-46a8-8af6-ba6964380a6c.jpg?v=1778866210","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mcintosh-for-the-love-of-music-9780978723606","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
