McIntosh mc275

Received new MC275 yesterday. Units On/Off switch doesn't work. Amp only shuts off when you unplug it. And no, I don't have any triggers attached to it. Most disconcerting considering I waited three weeks for it. I've read Mcintosh has lowered the bar the last couple of years, but this is aggravating. Would not recommend this amp! Does anyone have any suggestions for another brand?

Mc support is second to none.  I have owned many brands in my 40 yrs of audiodom and nothing comers close to McIntosh for all around satisfaction.  Let dealer handle the issue, may be as simple as a faulty fuse.  The unit did not leave the factory faulty since all are tested
prior to shipment.  The MC275 is a superb amp.

I've owned a pair of MC75 mono amps for 50 years, they are vintage from the 60's and have been my only amps.  They still sound great!

yep, agree with mattmiller. the MC275 is a classic, new or old. there is a reason the 275 has become such a benchmark for others to measure up against. was not just by accident.
