runwell,
Neither the MC352 nor the MC2100 have tubes in them. They're both solid state.
Roxy54,
       I mean the preamplifier is tube one,if I do not remember wrong,it is 2100. I try to check online,but do not find out.

It is C2200 Mcintosh tube Preamplifier.

Even it is Tube Pre,it is big big different from Audio Research Pre.
