Offered is „602 Stereo Endverstärker“ by McIntosh as second-hand device from the category „Transistor-Poweramp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 3909570323 ends on 29.10.2026 at 14:55 o'clock.
Good condition at €6,300 puts this a bit above the €5,065 median and below the €8,941 75th percentile, so it reads as fair-to-slightly-ambitious rather than a bargain. It is not cheap, but it is still comfortably inside the normal upper-middle band for recent comparable listings, so the price can make sense if the unit is genuinely clean and ready to play.
This is the kind of McIntosh amp buyers chase for its authoritative, smooth power delivery, strong build quality, and long service life when properly cared for. The upside is strongest if the cosmetics are excellent, ownership is known, and it comes complete with the right accessories or packaging; at this level, those details help justify the premium and make resale easier later.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
McIntosh Laboratory, founded in 1949 in the United States by Frank H. McIntosh and Gordon Gow, embodies a storied heritage of American audio innovation.

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.

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.
