Speakers for Mc240

I have not posted for many a long year but have started to get dragged back into this ruinous hobby. I am based in the United Kingdom and have just come into possession of a Mc240 and a MR67 tuner. They are both boxed and  have been only owned by 2 people since new, I know one of them, they even have the instructions and the service guarantees unfilled. I have decided to build a system around them. My vinyl front end is sorted so looking for suggestions on preamps and loudspeakers. 90% of my listening is jazz with the rest opera and 70's rock, soul etc. Any suggestions pleased.

You might want to start a thread in the 'Speakers' category too; you should get some different responses there to check out.

Line Preamplifier - Freya+ F. No Forkbeard

Now for the speakers your MC240 means you need a speaker with controlled phase/ electrical impedance swings.

This is the ideal speaker with easy to drive impedance and voltage demands that fit the McIntosh amp @zola1970. They sound phenomenal too with virtually ever genre

Keep the period tube Mcintosh theme going-

C22 preamp

Get a proper aerial antenna for the MR 67. I use an MR 71.

Speakers? One of the Iconic Klipsch models.

Between to 2, maybe budget busting? Maybe not with patience while  watching listings?

Happy hunting and future listening!
