Thank you for the warm welcome guys. I can't wait until I have enough posts to start my own. I recently purchased 5 McIntosh Pieces from Audio Classics in October and again in January. I purchased an MA6600 integrated amp, MCD301 SACD player, MR85 Tuner, C2500 Tube preamp and a MC152 power amp. These are for 2 different systems.

Looks like a new piece of kit with those handles! Enjoy how pretty it is both visually and sonically.
