I snagged a mint condition McIntosh MC452 which was something like four months old when I found it on Audiogon.
I really enjoy this amp, which is driving a pair of Focal speakers with that beryllium tweeter, which I found sounds too "sharp" with other amps, not the McIntosh.
You can probably find a mint-condition MC452 for your price range. If you do, please have a friend help with the unboxing and positioning, as this beast is heavy!
