McIntosh MC225.....should I bite and buy??

Posted by sonorasam (A) on August 14, 2002 at 13:33:31

I have a chance to buy a fully functional MC225 Mac amp...everything has been checked out to spec...no rust..etc for $795.....I have never had a tube amp, only Aragon stuff, 4004, 24K...should I jump into tubes and is this a good deal? Will I regret going from 200 wpc to 25wpc? I don't play music that loud. I would, for now, have to run it through my sstate aragon 24k pre-amp, but, I do have a chance of inheriting another mc225 and a Mac pre amp....so I would eventually have 2 plus the tube preamp and as I understand it, bridge it to mono for 50 watts?

Thanks for any advice!
