On the way to home, I dropped Hi-Fi Do and I found McIntosh Power amplifier MC225. http://www.hifido.co.jp/cgi-bin/oldhifido_info5.cgi?model_no=04-19241-26423-50-2004-03-24&lang=e I asked the manager to let me listen to it and he arranged it immediately. It was very clear sound to compare with MC275 and it seemed my favorite type among McIntosh. I wanted to get it and asked , "The price is more expensive than I expected. Could you make any discount?" He said, "You already have many amplifiers. Even so will you buy another one ?" It sounded that he was reluctant to sell it. I decided to buy it because I wanted to compare it with my hand- made amplifier. Another reason is that I did not have any famous brand model , so had desired to set McIntosh product in my room. I compared to listen to it through connecting RCA speaker as soon as I came home. The sound seemed much better than that which I listened to in Hi-Fi Do and it might be caused by speaker. The sound was clearer with slight power to compare with hand-made amplifier. I had McIntosh MC60 but the sound through MC225 seemed more natural. I had been listening to it for two hours and then I checked the inside of MC225. It seemed quite same as the picture of MC225 shown in Kankyuoukoku Magazine. All parts were original ones and two seal of maintenance showed that a few parts were replaced. I looked forward to assemble hand-made amplifier to imitate MC225.
