| Using REW to assess new equipment I recently added a McIntosh MC-275 Mk IV to my system, replacing an MC-250 (temporarily, will be used for rear surround speakers once I upgrade my preamp). Used REW to compare before and after curves.
The MC-250 was gone over last year by Terry DeWick and is up to specs.
It is interesting to note in 1970 the MC-250 sold for $379 while the MC-275 was $444. The MC-2505 (blue meters) sold for $449. Now the MC-275 Mk V goes for $3,900.
Finally, Mr. Waddles critically listening to the new amp.
