Jeff Coates is the National Sales and Marketing Director for ProJect Audio Systems and Sumiko Cartridges at McIntosh Group Inc. and he's passionate about all things vinyl and high-end audio. Join us while we talk to Jeff about his journey from retail to working as a director for one of the most aspirational hi-fi audio companies in the world. He talks all about upcoming partnerships with auto manufacturers that will provide stock McIntosh car audio. We learn about the makings of a great pre-amp, the differences between moving magnet and moving coil phono cartridges, and why sometimes high output (or louder) doesn't always equal better. This one is for the audiophiles.
