I had a McIntosh AMP, MC2250, 250wpc, 80lbs.

I lifted it out of a low shelf in a tight space, felt a 3rd meniscus tear in my 'bad' knee while lifting.

*Ah*  A 'phile product I've just 'demented' for all us pre- and current 'boomers' that can't cope 'n carry mono monsters no'mo....

"Is it time to trade up/down that mega mono amp?  Or are you just curious as to what may have lurked beneath it, soaking up that clean SET heat?

Wonder no longer, with the AmpUpper. (reg.trade mark pend.)
