MR 80 Restored!
I've had this MR 80 for several years. I bought it from AA member Glen. Last year it started to lose lock, so off it went for restoration. I just got it back from Absolute Sound Labs. Mark Wilson did an outstanding job of restoring it to like new condition. This was a significant undertaking involving consultation with the McIntosh factory team and a retired McIntosh service manager. Mark pulled out a coffee mug full of parts, mostly electrolytic capacitors. He re-lamped it as well, so it should be good for a long time. I highly recommend Mark's work.
It's sounding great now - better than ever.
