I have a pair of McIntosh MI--75 amps that I am restoring and they are both missing the front panels.
I have had a couple new blank rack panels fabricated with the proper opening for the controls, but I have no information on what type of fasteners were used to secure the original panels to the amp chassis.
Can someone provide a photo showing the detail of the original fastener close up? It appears to space the panel about 1/4" from the amp chassis, but I am not sure if it is a threaded unit or something like a camlock fastener, or just a spacer between the panel and the chassis with a screw that goes into the rack rail just adjacent to the screw that holds the chassis to the rack rail.
I have totally recapped both units and replaced the original rectifiers. They sound amazing.
