Angeboten wird „Preamplifier C47“ von McIntosh als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Vor- / End - Kombi“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 3088584493 endet am 29.07.2026 um 17:10 Uhr.
Compared with a similar preamp in the used market, €3,500 is solidly fair and slightly above the middle, not a bargain-bin price but still comfortably inside the normal range for this model. Against your recent comps, it sits above the €3,177 median and below the €3,625 75th percentile, so I’d read it as a reasonable ask for a good-condition example rather than an aggressive one.
That still makes it an attractive buy if you want a well-regarded McIntosh line-stage with proper build quality, flexible connectivity, and the kind of smooth, full-bodied presentation these units are known for. At this level, the main upside is owning a premium preamp without paying top-of-market money; if the unit is clean, fully functional, and complete with the right accessories, it’s a sensible buy for someone matching it to serious power amps and a mature system.
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. 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.
