Hello, this is my first post here. I’m seeking advice on a McIntosh system that I inherited from a family member. It is the following components:
-C32 preamp
-MC2300 amplifier
-XR7 speakers
-MQ102 environmental equalizer
The components are all in good condition minus a few issues with the speakers, they need a few surrounds replaced, the mid drivers I think, and the grill fabric was shredded in a few spots by a cat. The system is currently in storage half way across the country from where I live, and quite frankly I don’t have room for a system this size in my current small apartment, but plan on taking ownership when I have the space for it. I do remember hearing it a few times as a kid and my impression, at least as a 12 year old, was that it was very impressive.
What am I in for with this system? And what would be recommended for repair on the speakers? I looked and it seems the surrounds are readily available. Is this something I could do myself or is it something better left to a professional?
Thanks!
