    MC2105 restore to former glory / parts list

    MC2105 restore to former glory / parts list I finally decided to restore my beloved MC2105. I am a hobbyist, not an engineer so my thoughts on circuit theory are to be taken with a grain of salt. That being said: I do have some insights that may help people that don’t do this work every day...

    Is it Stupid to use the Power outlet on Mcintosh Mx113

    Hi Everyone, Is it a bad idea to use the power outlet on the MX113 Pre/Tuner to feed the MC2100 AMP? I really want to try it and it says in the manual to hook the amps to them, but I'm scared it may be a bad match and risky? What do you think? Thanks, John

    MC2100 wirewound resistors

    Hi Folks, I would appreciate your advice on where to buy the 5w resistors for an MC2100 (139-080, etc.). Mouser has parts that look the same with the correct specs but my friend suggested to buy them from mcintosh. As expected, they're more expensive from Mcintosh by a factor of 10. TIA, Matt

    A wonderful MC2100 power amp

    Due to unforseen circumstances, I sold the majority of my audio system, to include my MC7200. In its place I had the opportunity to borrow my brother's McIntosh MC2100 power amp. This vintage amp really sounded dynamic with my Cornwall loudspeakers. No preamp was used; my only source was an AMC...
