I tried the 7106 once and didn't like it at all, and I am a Mac fan. If it's anything like that I would avoid it.
Somewhat obscure Mcintosh amps.
I have the chance to buy a used Mcintosh MC126 6 channel amp for a decent price and can't find a whole lot about it or anybody that has owned one. I would be using it in the mono "bridged" mode which basically triples the power output.
I have seen a few MC7106 for sale which is similar but had never came across the MC126 until recently.

What single channel are you intending? Just to clarify what I found: 120 wpc x 6 at 4 ohms; 80 wpc x 6 at 8 ohms "CONFIGURABLE POWER OUTPUT. Channels 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6 can be operated either in the normal mode (120W x 6) or with each channel pair independently bridged (275W x 3). Configurations of 5 and 4 channels are also possible." http://www.berners.ch/McIntosh/Downloads/MC126_bro.pdf no mention of bridged MONO or 360 wpc. Perhaps they mention it in the full manual http://www.berners.ch/McIntosh/Downloads/MC126_own.pdf mixed review https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/9138-opinion-on-mcintosh-mc126-6/ seems they only made it a few years: 2001-2003 might be hard to find parts if needed.
