Hi McIntosh MC8207 owners, please help!


Hi anyone owns a Mac8207 amplifier? I picked up pre owned unit that’s supposedly “like-new” but I noticed the center right heatsink gets pretty warm in less than 20 min from turning on. The other side doesn’t get nearly as warm. Is this normal? Thanks!

If after turning on without music playing, the center right heatsink of the amp gets quite hot in less than 20 minutes, while the other side doesn't get nearly as hot, the problem may be some faulty ThermalTrak power transistors in that channel.

Get it serviced before the problem gets worse!
