Easy on the eyes, even better on the ears. The McIntosh MC250 is a solid-state design on a classic chassis that retains the wonderful McIntosh sound without tubes. This piece presents very well visually, even the the bends and edges of the chrome chassis are some of the better we've seen. Recently serviced, with channels evenly balanced at 70 watts, this is a piece that could stay in your collection for generations.
