Vintage McIntosh Question

Guy in SD is Repairaudio. 6192829101.

I had my mc250 gone over by Terry DeWick. Very fair pricing,great work and very Honest. In KY if I recall...easy to find on Google. One of The Mac guys!

Audio Classics. These guys are ex Mac employees and they can even take you on a tour of the Mac factory. I stopped by there a few years ago and was flabbergasted at their operation. Tour busses full of Japanese tourists stop by this place. The amount of Mac gear sent to Japan is amazing. I would guess that's where most of their business comes from. Anyhow, even if you call Audio Classics just to get a second opinion it's worth it. Very nice group of Mac lovers. The amps are repaired by ex McIntosh engineers from what they told me.

you may know, but DeWick is the best....

I have 2 service centers within a reasonable driving distance.
Electric Clinic in Gaithersburg, MD & Music Tech in Springfield, VA. Anyone have any experience with either?

I asked the same question of McIntosh, here is their response.

Hi Bill,

Nope there are no upgrades, they are still awesome units.

I tend to agree with the responses here.

Audio Classics near Binghamton,NY will service them for you.

Great guy in San Diego. Google him. Forget his name but can do a complete end to end for a few hundred dollars.

At this point at this age they really need a bit of servicing. The big issue with older amps is usually capacitors but all of the parts need to be checked to make sure they are operating within spec and rebiasing needs to be done (even on transistors. It might be expensive but it is the right thing to do do

I would. It is worth it....
