One day while at a job site, I notice that this old man has a McIntosh amp in a cabinet. We start talking about it and how he has had it for 30 years and then he turns it on. The thing sounds great. Ever since then I have been hooked.

So I can't get this thing out of my head, I start checking them out on EBay, but I don't know much about them. I would prefer to pick up an older unit, I wouldn't use it much, just something to add to a collection. ( I have a 1912 Victrola that I inherited from my father.)

Have any of you guys had any experience with these older units? If so, what speakers would you recommend, that sort of thing.

Thanks.
