Kevin.......I know, I fall in love with McIntosh amplifiers so easily. I had the MC452 for 8 years. That's a pretty good run. If I had endless discretionary resources I would keep all the McIntosh amplifiers I ever owned. If memory serves me right that would be 20 amplifiers.

I have been drawn to the MC75's ever since McIntosh introduced them after the 60th Anniversary Editions came out with the Commemorative C22. I had hoped they would produce the MC75's as a separate item and they did. As time passed it became apparent I waited a bit too long and McIntosh ended the MC75 production in 2017. It took me two more years to solidify my intent to find a pair. I was fortunate that my McIntosh dealer was able to take advantage of his resources and located this mint pair of MC75's traded in by the original owner who moved up to the MC2301's. This time I won't make any predictions on how long I may own these beauties but I suspect it will be a long time.
