Mac 252, 353, 402?

HI -- I've been mulling over these amps and was just wondering if someone out there has had experience with all three. They will be driving a set of Harbeth Monitor 30s (not the most efficient things in the world).

I was initially driven toward a MA-2275 (that's what started the whole mac madness) but, alas, with little children around, my house is not the most tube-friendly environment.

Ideas, thoughts?

I have a Classe CP50 with my McIntosh amp and man is it excellent. I love that preamp - and it sounds better than the newer 47.5 and goes for the same money. Arthur

Efner, I have a new C2200 also and got a 275. Planning to add another 275 and run as monos. For only a couple hundred more than a 2102 a pair of 275's seems like a lot more bang for the buck.

There is talk in AA about how monoblocked 275s are much better than a 2102 so you may be on the right track.

Sounds like the 275 is the way to go.I'd have a good upgrade path.
Any thoughts about the 275,c2200 combo with the proac One sc's
