Beautiful condition MC 240 with original McIntosh tubes for sale. Item has been lightly used since I have owned it. My use has been running a pair of these with Klipschorns, but the horns don't need separate amplifiers according to my ears, so I am considering parting with this amplifier. I have not done any maintenance, but you should assume the usual upkeep for this type of item and its age. Look at my photos, and look at all the other 240's for sale, and decide for yourself how nice this one is. I am not anxious to sell it, but happy to answer any questions you have so you can make an informed decision.I DO NOT SHIP ANYTHING I SELL ON REVERB. YOU WILL HAVE TO ARRANGE LOCAL PICK UP FROM ME WITHIN 30 MILES OF 77379. IF YOU IGNORE THIS DISCLAIMER AND PURCHASE THIS AMPLIFIER, THEN NEED A REFUND BECAUSE YOU CANNOT PICK IT UP, THERE WILL BE A 10% RESTOCKING FEE FOR CAUSING THE AMPLIFIER TO BE REMOVED FROM THE MARKET.

McIntosh Laboratory, founded in 1949 in the United States by Frank H. McIntosh and Gordon Gow, embodies a storied heritage of American audio innovation. Originally based in Silver Spring, Maryland, before relocating to Binghamton, New York, where products are still handcrafted today, the brand emerged from a commitment to superior sound reproduction. From powering President Lyndon Johnson's inauguration to the Grateful Dead's Wall of Sound at Woodstock, McIntosh has shaped pivotal moments in music history and pop culture, earning its place as a cultural icon.
The company specializes in a comprehensive lineup of high-fidelity components, including renowned amplifiers—particularly its revered tube models for their warm, enveloping sound—along with solid-state power amps, stereo tuners, loudspeakers, turntables, music streamers, processors, and digital-to-analog converters. This breadth supports both two-channel stereo systems and multi-channel home theaters, delivering immersive experiences in music and film. Iconic blue watt meters on their gear have become globally recognized symbols of precision and power.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, McIntosh commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising quality, luxurious build, and timeless design. Far from mid-tier or niche boutique, it stands as a premium benchmark, favored by legendary musicians and producers across decades, blending vintage allure with modern performance for those who demand the ultimate in sonic fidelity.
