Our building is owned by a guy in his 70's. He dropped by the other day to check up on some stuff and commented on m B&W's and then let me know that he has a bunch of older Mac gear at his house. He's the original owner of all of it and it isn't getting any use since he got married a few years back. He's supposed to be sending me a list of the gear he has
Never would have pegged this guy for an audio freak but I'm interested to see what he's sitting on...

lots of MC250's or 275's, you hope.

oh yeah, I've seen a few in my day - never actually heard one but I've run across a few in local shops.

Mac was good solid stuff. You have to like tube to like the older models. I would worry about getting tubes for them. But if you can glom onto the amps, go for it! B&W ain't too shabby. I almost bought then then top of the lines when I got my KEF's instead. They were the old 801's, a stack of three boxes. ;) The KEF's sound fine. You are lucky to be in a position to get those Macs.

I don't plan on buying any of it but I wouldn't mind borrowing some of it for a while

maybe you could "lease" a few monoblocks
