Offered is „MR71“ by McIntosh as second-hand device from the category „UKW without DAB/DAB+ / Bluetooth“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7530753922 ends on 08.12.2026 at 06:09 o'clock.
Condition matters a lot here: at €2,335, this is ambitious for a used MR71 unless it’s recently serviced, accurately aligned, and cosmetically exceptional. Recent used comps cluster more around roughly €550–€1,300, with stronger restored examples and rare clean survivors reaching about €1,600–€1,800, so this asking price sits above the typical market rather than near it.
The upside is real: the MR71 is one of McIntosh’s most respected vintage tube FM tuners, valued for its build quality, strong reception, and classic presentation, and well-kept examples do hold collector appeal. If this one has documented service, a fresh alignment, original knobs/cabinet, and a clean, stable tube set, it becomes much easier to justify; if not, I’d want room in the price for maintenance because age-related work is part of the game with this model.
