Hifi jim Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I've had older McIntosh SS amps, the MC2105 and 2505 and absolutely loved them with Klipsch. I think you'd be quite happy with the 7270. If not, it's an easy sell as the 7270 is a very desirable model. Average used price is between $1500 and $1900 depending on condition.

Allstarmike Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 Oh it's good to know you love them with klipsch ,,thanks for the input. Anyone out there know about the input voltage adjust I'll be running the pre outs from my marantz should it be .25v or 2.5 ??(something like that) and how about the taps ?? They run from 1ohm to 8 and I've heard that the rf83's dip as low as 3.5 ???does one give better sound then another???thanks mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question concerning the output taps are the same, try them all and listen to find which you prefer. I'd start with the 8 ohm taps, as I believe that is what the 83s are rated at. The Mac cannot be harmed by this... so no harm in trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
