opinions on mcintosh 275 V


I have the opportunity to pick up a McIntosh 275. The price is reasonable based on what i have seen listed on the agon amps section. This will be my first Tube amp. I have been looking for a tube amp to set up a dedicated stereo with my Vintage Klipschorns. I recognize i will also need to get a preamp for this. I am interested what folks think about the unit and what Preamps are recommended to match with this. My primary feed will be a maplenoll apollo fitted with a UniVerse cartridge.

The McIntosh 275 tube amp is a wonderful addition to any system. Just be aware that there are several versions, i.e. IV, V, VI and Anniversary Edition. That may account for the reasonable price relative to what you have seen on Audiogon.
McIntosh and Klipsch pair up exceptionally well. You won't regret your choice. Any quality pre will do but I would stick with tubes.
