See the sexy custom made chrome multicell cans up top? See the Mundorfs and Obligato caps inside? You likely not find a better sounding (or looking) pair of 60's (unless you've got another pair that we've restored and upgraded).
The MC60 monoblocks are living proof that they just don’t make them like they used to—and by “they,” we mean McIntosh themselves. Sure, you could buy a modern McIntosh amp, but where’s the romance in that? The MC60s are for those who value craftsmanship, history, and the ability to humblebrag at every audio meet-up.
