THRILLIST: THE McINTOSH MT5 IS THE 'RECORD PLAYER THAT CHANGED QUESTLOVE'S LIFE'

After hearing Bill Wither's "Ain't No Sunshine" on the MT5, Questlove was stunned, proclaiming “I’ve lived with this song for forty plus years and I’m only hearing it now.”

According to Thrillist, the MT5 Precision Turntable "has got vinyl lovers pretty much losing their minds." When fashion designer and music lover John Varvatos teamed with Questlove, an accomplished musician and walking music encyclopedia, to host the MT5 listening event at the legendary Electric Lady Studios, they say "you know it’s not your average record player." Each handpicked a select group of tracks to highlight the MT5, and after Questlove played Bill Wither's "Ain't No Sunshine," he was stunned, proclaiming “I’ve lived with this song for forty plus years and I’m only hearing it now.” That is the kind of experience the MT5 can deliver.
