RE: Opinions on McIntosh C28 preamp

Of all the McIntosh gear I liked the earlier C-26 and C-28 preamps.

I think they are pretty good for their age and type. However they really - and I can't stress this enough!!! really need a good restoration by a professional. Their lytic caps are WAY past their safe use point as well as sonically degrading the sound quality.

But yes a good preamp!
