Description
Hello dear ebay-members,today i want to sell my nearly 30 years old McIntosh MX 110 preamplifier. As you may know, this tuner is a collectible, and a very high-class also.It's a great shame i have to sell it, but i think it will be in good hands soon. So, here are the details, the description and experiences of the MX 110.I got it in the early 80's, and i loved to have it. I always administered it and it was i great condition all the years. But someday, i hadn't the time to use it anymore and so it stood up to 21 years in my cupboard, i never used it since 1987. So i decided to sell it here on eBay, it may be great for the buyer to have one of these really amazing preamps. However, it doesn't want to work, so i brought it to an technician, but he didn't want to look at the McIntosh, because he was too scared to damage it. Then i searched another one, a specific one and he finally repaired it. The bill was 270EUR (424$).You can see the bill on picture number 11. Now, it works great again and it is ready to be sold.My McIntosh MX 110 doesn't have many scratches on the surface, even not at the sides, the chrome is nearly perfect and you can use every button without fear. For short: It's, still after 30 years, an perfect, amazing and powerful preamplifier. See the pictures to create your own opinion.Heres's an short affirmation:http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/archive/index.php/t-15329.htmlOK, some McIntosh products are legendary: the C22, C28, MR78, MR71, MC275, MC240, MC30, MC225, MX110, MC2105 and MC3500 come to mind.
