McIntosh MC162 Power Amplifier

Near-Mint Make Offer. Condition is used but excellent.
Shipped with FedEx Ground/Home Delivery. S/N PD2001
2x160W into 4-Ohms or 2x100W at 8-Ohms
Bridged: 500W (4Ω) or 320W (8Ω)

Features McIntosh's characteristic combination of high resolution and warm, enveloping tone. I deliberately selected this particular amp because besides being in near-perfect condition it is exactly the 1000th MC162 manufactured by McIntosh [S/N PD2001] --- I have a thing for numbers.

Includes Balanced XLR inputs, multi-way speaker terminals. Direct-coupled means it delivers especially precise sound and can actually be lifted by mere mortals.

It's a Mac--and in spite of its clarity, lucidity, and power, the presentation is never edgy or brittle. Against a dead-silent background it offers that characteristically warm, engaging yet precise McIntosh sound. Meanwhile it will control--nay, compel--your speakers with absolute authority.


As you can see from the photos, not only do I have the original McIntosh double shipping box, this amplifier has never been shipped since its original delivery to my local dealer. They sold it new, took it in once as a trade-in and I'm the second owner. This is as 'virgin' and 'unmolested' an MC162 as you're likely to find and a possibly unrepeatable opportunity. It's either an 8 or 9 on the AGS, as the only cosmetic issue I can see is faint smudging on top of the case (visible in photo). The dealer checked its operation and replaced the panel lights as a prophylactic measure.

The face plate and glass are perfect as near as I can see, and the case isn't far behind. I'm asking $1895 plus shipping for the MC162.

Please note that the MAC-3 Preamp/Processor (separate listing) has now sold.
Also: I'm getting much better shipping estimates with FedEx than AG is indicating. So please feel free to confirm that with me before purchasing.
