@jea48   From the MC8207 owner manualPower Supply CircuitsTo compliment the design of the MC8207, there is a high current power supply for the five power amplifier channels. Refer to figure 21. The very large Power Transfomer, has toroidal winding...

@oldears How much are you looking to get for the PS Audio Humbuster 
DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA
@jea48 With my amp only one is buzzing, the left one, so lets say I do have dc on my ac line why would only one buzz? IMHO I think that the one that buzz is a bad one comparing to the right one which is a good one. It would be the only explanation...

@erik_squires But what makes one transformer to buzz but another not. Wouldn't you think that when you spend this kind of money for an amp to be quite even if there is a little DC offset in the AC line, plus there was another guy that said there i...

@stereo5 I just got an email from the salesman I bought it from and told me that he would talk to service dept. to see if they can check or have checked the one I returned. I would also be bringing this one to them as well and have them plug it in...

@kalali I did buy from reputable authorized McIntosh dealer and the dealer replaced the first unit with a second brand new unit which has a louder buzzing and it is coming from the same left side of the amp. I am suspecting that somehow McIntosh ... 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
@caphill Thank YouNow the search and demoing for some new tower speakers begins, have to find a good match for the MC462/C52. My B&W 683 S2's are not a match at all, they sound a lot better when hooked up to the MC462/C52 but I need more power... 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
@eziggy7 I am really happy with the Marantz AV8805, this thing is ridiculously good and worth the money, when it comes to processing music in stereo or 4K Blu Ray HDR whatever movies, nothing comes close to the 8805 in its price range. I had an o... 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
I have always wanted to have a McIntosh gear and when time came to upgrade my HT I looked no further than the MC8207 which was priced perfect for my likings, I am not that much into the blue meters for my HT so that's why I decided to get the $300... 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
@auxinput I still haven't gotten it yet, it will be few days until it comes to my house. Once I get it and install it I will let you know my thoughts and I think that I will like it because I am coming from a very old almost 20 year old receiver... 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
@caphill Do you think it is worth getting that expensive amp to drive my less expensive or entry level B&W 683’s S2? I mean I like this speakers for what they are but I would not think that they can handle the kind of amps like the Gryphon Dia... 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
I did go with the Marantz AV8805 for my HT because I could not pass up the deal I got from the authorized Marantz dealer. I wanted to have a preamp that had all the latest technology built inot it and be of a good brand with a good reputation(also...
