Re: which mcintosh amp for klipsch cornwall

From personal experance, I think the lower watts will gige the best sound from those Cornwalls. The very best? Well, that would be the MC 225 tube amp. I have a couple in use, but none for sale, at the moment and you want SS anyway. Next best for you may be a pair of mc 50's. They are early transistor units, not yet fully appreciated for their wonderful performance. Probably still available at a pair for less than a 225 single. I have one only, at the moment. Great amps and perfect for your needs. Sorry, but I only have one at the moment, so cannot meat your needs. I suggest that you watch the eBay auction site for McIntosh items. The smaller watt MAC amps will be less expensive, and will suit your speakers even better than high power units. Far sweeter sounds - trust me.
