Classe or McIntosh


I have the Cam 200s and have an itch to own vintage tube amps.I like the looks of the MC60s,but how do they compare.Will I be making a mistake?

i own a pair of classe cam 350's and i have owned a pair of mc60's.....

two totally different animals...

the cams are very,very dreamy for a ss amp -very reliable.
the mc60's are carmel colored- relaibilty unknown..

i would be tempted to the middle ground with the atmasphere mc60 with a matching speaker.
Aball,

The comparison was from two Mc2105's to one KST100.
I have since upgraded to several much more advanced Krells.

There are many good amps both solid state and tubes as indicated in this discussion. However, the patented unity coupled output transformer in MAC tube amps is unique. It has the lowest distortion of any other push pull output transformer, and this does translate into very natural presentation. I always get drawn to the sonic presentation of vintage MACs, such as the MAC 1500 receiver, the MC 225 amplifier and the MA 230 integrated amplifier.
Gellis, the MC60, MC30 and MC240 are also desirable amps, but the 7591 output tubes in the MC225, MA230 and MAC1500 produces a sonic glow that is rather captivating!
