Seller's Description

With its warm rich vacuum-tube sound the McIntosh MR67 FM Stereo Tuner is a real collectors item. It was manufactured between 1963 and 1969, making it a classic piece of 1960s high-fidelity equipment. Only 6,507 units were reportedly made, making this one a somewhat rare find. The MR67 is very well regarded among vintage-audio collectors, not just for its build quality, but also for its tonal character - its audio response is very "flat and clean". The MR67 is also quite good at locking onto weaker FM signals compared to more primitive tuners. (Please note the MR67 is FM only.)This particular MR67 powers up and picks up FM stations. It come with its walnut (I believe) case, which you'll notice I've removed it from on some of the listing pics to get clearer pics of the tubes etc.CONDITION PLEASE READ: Power ups, tunes into FM radio stations. This tuner shows definite signs of age and wear as most vintage items do. The case is worn in parts, the metal and knobs show wear and patine in parts. It will probably clean up if you prefer that look. Examine all the pictures closely. Zoom in & out to get a good sense of its exact condition: a picture tells a thousand words. The item photos serve as a document as to its condition. You will receive the exact MR67 pictured here.
