My Second MAC: A 4100

[crooner]

The darn thing weighs 35#s. And most of that weight is in the transformer. And the caps are 12000ufd each. Plenty for 80WPC.

That's why I said "compared to the monster receivers". That class includes receivers with 120 wpc or more. 160 wpc being common. I'm actually advocating for the mac here!

For a 80 wpc unit, of course it has the right "guts" for the job!

Actually, it's "official" weight is 42 lbs.

Not too shabby, methinks...

Looking forward to your impressions on the sound, once you get it fixed, that is!

AK Member hadrian333 is a McIntosh-authorized Tech and will take a look at it next week and let me know what can be done. He's about 15 miles from me so I won't have to be shipped again.
