Offered is „C 100“ by McIntosh as second-hand device from the category „Pre-Amplifier / Processor“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 527180394 ends on 02.11.2026 at 15:18 o'clock.
As a legacy McIntosh processor, timing matters mainly because this is an older surround piece rather than a current-state digital hub. At €4,300, it lands well above the €2,158 median and even above the €3,229 75th percentile, so the ask is ambitious for the used market, not a bargain.
That said, McIntosh processors are prized for build quality, classic presentation, and a sound that still appeals to two-channel and vintage-home-theater fans who want a premium control center. If the unit is fully functional, original, and ideally complete with remote, this is the kind of listing that can make sense for a collector or a McIntosh system match—but the buyer should expect to pay for rarity and condition, not value.
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. Far from mid-tier or niche boutique, it stands as a premium benchmark, favored by legendary musicians and producers across decades, blending vintage allure with modern performance for those who demand the ultimate in sonic fidelity.
