I have a few odd pieces but no playback set up at the moment. My AQ1001DT is waiting on the correct part (faulty pot and a couple resistors out of spec).
My friend Steve just took in a McIntosh MC-2200 (ugly 80lb 200w x2) amplifier, it's spotless and has the optional wood housing. I'm considering picking it up, he wants $600 for it. I know they sell for more, but I can't find much online about this particular amp, does anyone know anything about early 80's McIntosh Solid State? He comes across nice gear from time to time since he does higher end HT installs, so I told him to give me a call if he finds anything I might have an interest in. I'd have to invest in a pre as well, is it worth playing around with? He got this one from an 80yr old lady that was getting some whole-house music system put in, she said her husband bought it around 1980 and she no longer had a use for it. He paid his helper with the pre, so that's gone.
He's one of those "easy-come easy-go" type guys with 2 kids and no interest in gear anymore, but if he has something I think someone would be interested in, I'll post it in here.
It looks the same as the one in the picture, but with a wood housing:
