@glennewdick Just saw a near-new MC275 for sale in silver. Never before saw a silver Mac component in 40 years. So that would be a candidate at $5250.
Tube amps under $7500
Ready to experiment with combinations never before (or not recently) tried. Step one requires a tube amp. Now looking at Prima Luna EVO 400 which sells for 5K. Any other tube amps I should consider in this price/feature range? Must come in silver with balanced input. For pairing experimentally with various tube and SS preamps. Efficient 4 ohm Legacy speakers (and the room/setup) are the constants.

Every 275 I've ever seen is two tone sliver (polished stainless) on the top front and part of the sides with the bottom section black with the large MC275 name plate. very nice looking IMO. Note the tube cage is black but not needed. there are a few rare gold plated ones. for the price you listed it should be a Mk6 at least, current version. |
Synthesis or Jadis. All the Synthesis amps I’ve heard have been integrateds, but they do make a stereo amp and I believe monoblocks too. They have a definite house sound and it’s in the warm and tubey category yet with good detail and resolution. The Jadis amps are similar, but I don’t think they’re a fit for your aesthetic preference. |
