Just wanted to say how pleased I am with how things turned out on the Mac
tuner and amp. Got everything hooked up and the system never sounded better. Your packaging for return shipment of the amp and tuner was super. My thanks to everyone at Audio Classics who made this happen.
Hope to work with you folks again. J.D., MD |

MC500 is slightly older, (1994-1999) and, of course, a bit more powerful, but the MC352 had the Quad-Balanced design that the MC500 lacked.
This gives you even lower distortion and better S/N, and is the standard design for our bigger amps today. The MC352 was our best selling amp through out it's model life and Audio Classics offers a kit to convert it to the Fiber optic/LED lighting so the bulbs wont burn out.
Unless you have a very inefficient speaker that needs the extra watts of the MC500, I would go with the 352. Chuck Hinton of McIntosh Tech Support |

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful service you provided when my Mac 250 started to act up in a rather mysterious fashion. I picked it up at Audio Classics on March 1st and have been running it ever since and it has been truly fixed! You did a great job on this unit! I have turned it on and off repeated times and have run it for hours on end and I can truthfully say that it sounds better than it did when I first bought it.... The 250 does in fact sound “tubey” and somehow really the La Scalas sing...and I am most pleased to have this beautifully rebuilt unit in my amplifier stable…
I really appreciate the time and effort you put in the 250 redo and the fact that you telephoned me to help get to the heart of the problem really shows how much you care for the welfare of the client. Audio classics is very fortunate to have you to turn to when the going gets rough and a component needs that special someone who knows the ins and outs of all the Mac devices from the tube era on up to today… and you are that man! Thanks again for solving an enigma and returning a classics piece of audio to the land of the living. S.T., PA.

I think I have to agree, however, that Audio Classics is hard to beat. I have never been there (I plan to make the pilgrimage to the Bing this
summer), but they have serviced two of my units and did a great job and were a pleasure to deal with. another AudioKarma.com posting |

However, you won't go wrong dealing with Audio Classics. Great place - great service, great people. Too bad there can't be an Audio Classics where everyone lives! AudioKarma posting |

Just received my new all wood cabinet from "Audioclassics".Very nice,solid tiger maple,finished in a nice dark stain.Installed it on the Mac and it looks like a million bucks.A vast improvement over the original.Good price $149 plus shipping,a little over $220 CANADIAN at my door,10 days,just thrilled. Thanks all at Audioclassics.If you have a MAC4100, look seriously into this it is worth it,a classic receiver now better! B.R. Canada |

AudioClassics treats you right even if you buy a McCarAmp like I did from them....they took care of the repair and packed it like it was the last kidney available. AudioKarma listing |

Thanks for the help with my system. You sold me a MC275-IV to go with my C2200......I love this combo. I will stop in and spend more money next time... T.A., NY |

....you absolutely cannot do better than Audio Classics. Make it a special trip, stay overnight, tour the McIntosh factory, audition to your heart's content. They'll treat you like a McPrince! It's all part of the special McIntosh experience AudioKarma Posting |

Audio Classics can't be beat for customer service, selection and trades in the NE area. I drive from VT to Audio Classics which is a six hour drive and worth the trip. As suggested above make a day trip or an overnighter, bring some CD's,
listen to every combination of gear and tour the McIntosh factory. AudioKarma Posting |

Re McIntosh MC2120: Got it all hooked up and I am listening to Miles Davis’ “Kind of Blue” while I’m writing this, and man does it sound great! .... thanks again for all of your help. M.P., TN. |

Re PMC DB1+ & Cayin A70T: Well, it has been about 2 weeks since I installed my new amp and speakers. At first I must admit I was sort of disappointed. For the first 1/2 hour I thought oh god I just bought a 2.5 thousand dollar Kraco. Apparently tubes take a while to warm up / break in or something?.... It took me a while to "settle in" to the music to actually realize just how clear it was. Very enjoyable! ANY defect in recording is illuminated with a big bright flashlight with this system. As if the speakers shine a light on it and say 'look, there it is, there is the recording flaw!" .... Wow! The sound stage is amazing! The thing that most impressed me was the way the system reproduces voice. It is if the person is standing in front of you singing. Thank you for you input and help on this. It is a fine system. I am very happy with it. R.P., WA. |

Custom Install: I stopped by the house last night and everything looks good! Thanks .... for accommodating our tight schedule. D.B., N.Y. |

Klipsch Heresy II: ....at first I was a little disapointed, but the more I listened, the better I like them. After a full weekend of listening, all I can say is, "Thanks", glad we did business. It was a long ride but worth it to me, and in the end, I got what I wanted, and they are brand new, not used. Thanks again, you were the difference in this purchase. You took took the time to respond to my E-mails, treated me like a customer should be treated, a good transaction all around.I will not hesitate to tell other people about Audio Classics, and recomend you handle any questions they may have. Keep up the good work. Maybe someday I'll be back looking for some Mac equipment to drive my speakers. Thank You for your help. R.D., NY |

You do not know what a purchase of my first McIntosh means for me . I always had a dream to have it since I loved music and smuggled some McIntosh brochures. Living in communist era in Czechoslovakia it was not possible even think about to own one of these even I had a Master degree in Metallurgy (salary $120 / month) . Defected in 1986 and after spending 10 months in a refuge camp in Europe. Only after 3rd interview Canada accepted us . So we landed with three suitcases in Toronto in April 1987 and came to USA in 1991and became citizens in 2003. We love old America . I love "Made in USA". My wife is a piano teacher (and we are) both are looking forward (to the) MAC6500 as well because we collected about 2,000 LP's since we are in the states. We will always listen to LP's when we will be dinning at our house. In other words my dream came through. Thank you personally for serving me with your knowledge and thank you Audio Classics that they exists and serve people in a very pro way. You are doing a good name for this country in the entire world which is very necessary because this great country has so many enemies inside and outside. Thank you again and please give my compliments to your President and the whole management. God bless America. T.O., OH |

It's almost like Mac captured the best of tubes and solid state in the C41. Really impressive!! One again, thanks mucho for putting me on to this unit. I'm coming back for more. R.B., N

I don't know if Ryan expected to spend time on the phone with someone who only bought a couple of capacitors, but he's been very good with his time.T.B., CA |

....I love you guys, and recommend you on every forum I can. The car audio stuff seems like it could be more of a hassle to sell, so I appreciate the fact that you do- even though I've grown beyond the hobby. All it took was hearing a good two channel system to realize an automobile can't compare acoustically. J.M., IN |

Just wanted to thank you all for the excellent service given to me this
week..., with my puchase of the Martin Guitar. Great Prices and
Great service is truly hard to find these days...A special Thanks ..... for showing me every available DX-1 in in stock. The guitars were all nice, but it was that last one we opened that sealed the deal. Thanks. B.V. NY |

Received the McIntosh gear as you promised and in outstanding order.
Wired it all up last night...it sounds incredible. In my 38 years of buying audio I've never been treated as well and professionaly as you and your organization treated me. Thanks for all your help. Looking forward to more business with you and your company. R.P., AL.

WARNING -- entering the inner sanctums (sanctii?) of Audio Classics can lead to uncontrollable desires! I have been a very bad boy lately (and likely worse to come). There's all that lovely McBlue lighting on the McGoodies - and they make fine music as well. Seriously, they treat you like to want to be treated. Don't miss the chance to see them if you can. C.K., PA. |

I recieved my mr66 tuner today, I love it. Since I did not spend megabucks for the tuner I was worried
about the condition of the tuner. I am totally satisfied!!!.. Condition C4 was very misleading. The unit is very clean with very minor pitting and operational.It will need a tuning and some new caps. As funds allow I will buy again from you folks. A.E., KS. |

MAC 1700. (The tuner in that thing is incredible!) Anyway, with the MAC1700 driving my ancient Klipsch Cornwalls and the MAC4100 driving the old Klipschorns in my second system I have an embarassment of sound riches thanks to you - much appreciated! C.G., IL |

I'd like to thank you for all your help in my recent purchase of the
MC275II and the cabinet The amplifier and new cabinet are in magnificent condition, better than I had anticipated, and I particularly appreciate you sending the new cabinet and a pickup for the old one at your expense. I am running both of my MC275IIs in mono, driving Magnepan 3.6Rs, and the sound is wonderful. I wasn't sure how much difference it would make, but it is significant. Thanks again. It is indeed a pleasure to do business with professionals such as AudioClassics. H.F., FL. |
