Mcintosh pre amp pricing With McIntosh gear, best to have a budget and then shop for what you can afford. Consider some older models like C45 or C46? You’re never going to find a piece at low price unless it’s damaged but even then, they are not cheap. Guarantee once ... | |
Are there any issues with connecting speaker wire in this manner? I’m sorry but is this some kind of a joke? Using solid wire for speaker connections? You’re kidding right?
