A few years back, I had a Mac 402-MC. wonderful amp. Very reliable. Weighed 110 lbs. I was strong enough to lift it and move it around, but it was definitely a strain. I guess I was lucky to never get a hernia!!!
Funny Story
I received my Mcintosh 1.2Kw monoblock amps today. Happy day at my house. They came stacked on a pallet and the freight company was kind enough to bring them into my garage.
I figure I need to get these bad boys into the house and get them ready for the speakers that I need to buy. I yell out to my 16-year-old son and tell him that we just need to pick each box up and bring it downstairs. We both try to lift the box and realize there is no way we are going to move these things. I unpack the box and try to lift the amp. To my surprise, it is not going to be easy to lift them out of the box.
In the garage, they will sit for a couple of days until we get the shoulder dolly I ordered from Amazon. I did not realize 160 amps were that heavy.
I guess the excitement will last a few more days.... as I visit them in the garage every once in a while :)
