The McIntosh MR74 remains one of the most popular vintage tuners. Considered one of the best Mac tuners for sound quality, McIntosh used this tuner section in the MX113. After servicing, this particular piece tests with flying colors. A very trained eye will notice a bit of bubbling behind the glass, but it's unnoticeable from a listening position.
