Liner Notes
The Mclntosh MR 71 is a precision-engineered, highly sensitive FM Multiplex Tuner.The research staff of Mclntosh Laboratory has developed five new tuner circuit improvements for the MR 71. Automatic stereo-mono switching that is "clickless" and completely electronic. Multipath indicator to eliminate multi-path reception by showing when your antenna is rotated to the correct position for minimum multipath distortion. Double-tuned input circuits before the first R.F. amplifier to reduce spurious responses. New D'Arsonval movement meters of increased sensitivity which do not need zerosetting adjustments. A new computer designed filter to reduce noise from stations broadcasting sub-carrier auxiliary music services. No other tuner uses such a filter.
Packing
Prepare to be impressed. We have arguably the best packing process around. This piece will ship double-boxed, and fully insulated, taking extra care to ensure there's no pressure against the face. Then the inner box is suspended inside a double-walled outer box using shock-resistant foam corners. We also take great care to protect the tubes. When sensible, we will pack the tubes to prevent any movement. Other times, we'll individually wrap the tubes and mark their corresponding socket to preserve the bias. You can be confident that your piece will be snug as a bug in a rug.
Shipping
This piece ships to the contiguous United States for a flat rate of $100, which includes our packaging and our insurance. Of course, we'll ship anywhere in the world, just drop us a line and we'll give you an estimate – even if you're just curious.
