I have a neighbor in my complex who is a cool older gentleman. One day when we were talking near his door, I noticed he had an old system composed of all McIntosh products.

I couldn't get a close look, but I know he had at least two components (integrated amp maybe and something else?) and a pair of McIntosh speakers. Long story short, his speakers are completely deteriorated; the paper appears to have disintegrated in places on the cone. He told me that he fires up the system every now and then, but the speakers distort so much he has to turn it off.

Where I come in: I have a pair of B&W 601's that I'm not using and while I don't want to give them away, I wouldn't mind loaning them out indefinitely to this fella. My main concern is that his equipment won't mess up my speakers.

Without knowing the particular components and only the manufacturer, do y'all think there is any possibility of him hurting them by the products he has?

Thanks All Knowing Ones.
