Well it ain't ugly, it just don't match!There are several of us who might be willing to take that ugly black-face MC2500 from you so that you don’t have this dilemma.
The black faced amps will be available soon ...Sure it’s ugly, you should unload it as fast as you can find a willing recipient!
Eh ... the Mc just owns those 901s.How does the SAE compare to the Mac?
Thank you! It's been a fun project.Beautiful work Tony!
Maybe start a Kickstarter project for "install it yourself" big Mc amp enthusiasts...if there’s a market for a small cherry-picker (like a lightweight engine crane) for McIntosh enthusiasts, ... I have a feeling you’d be my beta-tester.
<edit> Well okay, you’d have the second one after me.

Yeah, I know what you`re referring to, as my having the stacked placement in the sunroom`s audio rack of the (2) 175lbs each of my purchased new Mc. MC-1201 in 2006 was interesting, as well, Dan !Well, it's a job getting that amp in the rack! Then, standing the rack back up ... Kristy and I have it down though.
thats the thing about Mc, great sound, but at cost, and a weight!Yeah, I know what you`re referring to, as my having the stacked placement in the sunroom`s audio rack of the (2) 175lbs each of my purchased new Mc. MC-1201 in 2006 was interesting, as well, Dan !
The delivery of them by the Mac dealer`s installers was to place them right side up on the carpeted floor near the rack so I could rewire them for 240 v operation before installation.
Let me tell you about siting on the floor and carefully and very laboriously flipping them over to remove the bottom panel for the access to the main`s conversion by myself with the use of the only functioning arm & hand, and then back upright for my two young buff friends to pick up and install in the rack the next day !
Yes, but as long as I can lift them I’ll buy them.thats the thing about Mc, great sound, but at cost, and a weight!
