The MC 275 is as nearly bullet proof as you can get. I would not hesitate buying a clean used one with low hours or trade in from a reputable source or dealer and save some money. I would try and find a "Gordon Gow" edition since it was of limited production and will only go up in value.
How much discount typically for a new MC275 to expect from a dealer?
I'm not interested at this time going used. No stock in my area, I'll have to order or go out of town. McIntosh has a pretty tight grip on their dealers, so I imagine not finding any here on AG. Just curious what to expect when making an offer. I'm not going to pay full retail. Ideas, thoughts? I'm not interested in other brands or amp ideas. I'm just researching Macintosh at this point in time.
