luddite Posted April 9, 2023 Posted April 9, 2023 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. Quote

luddite Posted April 10, 2023 Author Posted April 10, 2023 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. Quote

luddite Posted April 10, 2023 Author Posted April 10, 2023 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. Quote
luddite Posted April 10, 2023 Author Posted April 10, 2023 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. Quote
OO1 Posted April 10, 2023 Posted April 10, 2023 well , you got a woofer replacement , that's all that really matters Quote

luddite Posted April 21, 2023 Author Posted April 21, 2023 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. Quote
