  1. J

    Need help, not sure if I have this set up right.

    I just got a McIntosh 2105 amp and a C-26 preamp and I’m new to having a preamp/amp set up and have never set one up before.

Right now I’m using a 100 watt marantz 4300 with a set of Klipsch KG 4s. I know at 3 grand I’m getting into tube amp territory. Would I be better off getting...

Any suggestions for a good pre amp that would go well with this amp? I'm...

    McIntosh MC2105 and C30 power issues

    I recently sent my beloved McIntosh MC2105 and C30 for a long overdue overhaul at a “authorized McIntosh service depot”. When the gear came back 7 months later the first thing I noticed was the tape loop button on the C30 no longer worked. I was told by the servicer that those buttons are no...

    McIntosh MC 2105 Pots repair for gain

    After some experimentations and investigation think I found a solution in repairing the Gain controls on The Mcintosh MC 2105. I found that the drawings showed that the Potentiometer are part 134-191 250K ohm; yet I could not find these anywhere. I pulled apart my 2105 and found the POTS are...

    McIntosh 2105 + Vincent PHO 700... Will it work?

    Hi there, I'm pondering buying the Vincent pre amp to go along with my McIntosh 2105... I'm fairly new to all this though, so wondering how these two will play together? Is this a workable combination? Is a pre amp overkill on a McIntosh amp do you think? What might be a nice floor standing...
