  1. $2000 for the receiver. Nice looking, nice sounding. A statement piece of equipment.
  2. Bump. The ML1-C's likewise scream "crank me up!".
  3. Bump. Nice receiver. Hate to see it sitting around screaming "crank me up!"
  4. Selling a pair of ML1C 3 way speakers and matching MQ101 equalizer, as a set. The speakers have 12" woofers, with cloth surrounds; no worry's concerning wear. Walnut cabinets and fronts; grillcloths are in good shape. Expected cabinet wear. Speakers are heavy at 75 lbs each, and sound substantial. MQ101 is the eq McIntosh designed for the ML speaker series. It deepens the bass response and extends the range of the speakers. Equalizer is in good shape, glass is intact. Matching walnut cabinet likewise. $1000 for the set. I do not want to separate the pieces. Cash, Paypal, friends and family +3%. Again, these pieces are heavy, so buyer is responsible for shipping. Local pickup recommended. I can demo, and send more pictures on request. I am in the north county San Diego area.
  5. Selling my SX1250. Great shape, completely refurbished. Specs now exceed the 175 WPC Pioneer listed for it. Everything works. Glass is intact, dials original. Wood case and chassis show mild wear, as expected. I can send more pics, and a copy of the work done, on request. It's time to sell some equipment, that's the reason for letting it go. $2250. Cash, Paypal, friends and family +3%. It's heavy, 75 lbs, so shipping will be at buyer's expense. I'm in the north county San Diego area.
  6. Bump, and price drop. Now $1000.00 for both pieces. Got them out of their boxes. The C504 amp works great. The MR 510 tuner not so great. Seems the tuner won't tune. Something is wrong with the flywheel and scroll up button. The tuner will require some repairs. It tunes, but by using the scroll down button.
  7. A bit of newer information on an older post I made. A while back I bemoaned how I was unable to get any help from Klipsch regarding replacing a P39 driver with a torn surround. After much searching, a member of the forum was kind enough to help me source a replacement used driver. As far as I can tell, there are no NOS drivers for the P39's in the Klipsch inventory. I am aware of a supplier who is parting out a pair of P39's, and has a few drivers to sell. If there are others who are looking, let me know. The parts are used. Just thought I would pass the information along.
  8. Sorry for the duplicate post. It's been a while since I've done this. The Palladium P39 woofers are unobtanium. Likewise any worthwhile repair pieces. I had a reputable shop In Los Angeles recone my driver, but they put in a standard cone. The P39 cones are concave; the standard cones are convex. So there's no way it matches. Not sure if the sound would be the same, but I didn't try it. I was able to source a used driver from a source who will remain nameless. Bottom line is that if you can get a P39 replacement driver, consider yourself lucky.
  9. Not so great pics of the C504 and MR 510 before I boxed them up. Also shots of the paperwork from Audio Classics. These were used in my office system. Good phono section on the C504. $1500.00 for the pair. Paypal friends and family, or regular Paypal with 3% buyer's premium. Would prefer local pickup, or delivery within reason. Buyer pays for shipping.
  10. Oops. It is a C504 preamp with the MR 510 tuner. These were the slimline components McIntosh put out in the mid-late 80's. Lots of features in smaller sizes. Both units redone by Audio Classics. I will get some prices, and pictures up as I get the boxes out.

  12. Haven't been active on the forum for a while. Cleaning out the closet, and have a number of McIntosh components I am not using. Just testing the water to see if there is interest. C510 SS preamp and MR 510 SS tuner, sold as a set. C29 SS preamp, with walnut cabinet. MC2200 SS amp, with walnut cabinet. ML1C speakers with MQ101 equalizer, with walnut cabinet, sold as a set. All equipment is in good condition. Everything is boxed up, and not the easiest to access; I can get pictures and prices out as need be. Located in the San Diego area.
  13. Time to resurrect this old topic. I posted months ago concerning a blown woofer on one of my P39's. I have been dealing with Klipsch customer support, and with a forum member who is an insider at Klipsch, without resolution. I have been told woofers are available, and most recently that the woofers are not available, and now that there may not be replacements. I can't figure out why Klipsch would market a speaker line more expensive than their Heritage series, only to walk away from it. I have one driver that has a a tear in the surround. But Klipsch customer service tells me they cannot find a replacement. I have been in contact with Chief Bonehead, who initially offered help, but has since walked away from the issue. I do have a pair of Tigerwood P39's, which I purchased after selling my Klipschorns, which I now cannot enjoy because of a blown driver. There has been recent discussion of the Palladium series on the Forum. that is why I post now. If others have a way for me to get a replacement driver for a P39, please let me know. Klipsch has blown me off.
