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.

I've downsized quite a bit in recent years.   Everything sounds great and very easy to deal with.   I still have big old Ohm F5s that probably weigh about 100 pounds each but those are on castors so easy to move as needed.  The top mounted drivers are also easily detachable if needed.
