McIntosh - MA2275 Integrated Amplifier Looking for one. If you are thinking of parting with please let me know. Condition: any Payment Method: Region/State: (VIC) Victoria/Australia By ppsa 0 Comments AUD $6,500 Date: September 10, 20241 yr
At A$6,500, this sits just above the A$6,359 median and a touch over the A$6,429 75th percentile for recent comparable Australian listings, so it’s mildly ambitious rather than egregious. For a clean, properly functioning example, it’s still within the realm of a fair ask, but I’d want some room for negotiation given the small premium over the market center.
The MA2275 is a respected big-valve integrated with the kind of muscular, easy authority McIntosh does so well, plus enough refinement to make it a long-term keeper. If it’s been serviced, includes the remote and is cosmetically tidy, that helps a lot. Main things to confirm are the power-amp section health, selector/pot noise, and whether any previous repairs were done neatly.
