In Reply to: McIntosh C26 ain't bad.... posted by Tromatic on April 11, 2007 at 12:20:30:
and all good condition C26's look the same. I am using a MA 5100, another with bad rep, in my 3rd system. Actually, I just wanted to hear it as I got it back from my sis.It sounds like a pretty strong amp, clear, clean on line level, messed up (hard to describe) on phono. Maybe there needs to be repairs. But it cannot compare to even my old stuff (see my vintage system).
I used to have a C26 and MC 2100. Too long ago, but it was precisely the demo of an ARC SP3 and also the GAS equipment that led me away from SS McIntosh in 1977. But, so long ago that I cannot remember precisely.
