IB Slammin Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 I couldn't Log in as Terry N. Cruse so I am IB Slammin at this point. I found some old (working)tube amps and wondered what you tube guys think. Mac C-20 preamp and 2ea. Mac 30 (?) power amps used in an old church. Worth picking up?

Randy Bey Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Nah, don't bother. Not worth even thinking about. Where did you say that church was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artto Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Church? What's that? I never go to church. Guess I better start. BUY THEM NOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB Slammin Posted August 20, 2003 Author Share Posted August 20, 2003 Tony, I am in the foundation biz and was called to a small country church in Northwest AR. that wants to build a new building. They were using the Mac's to drive the oldest Heresys that I have ever seen. The unfinished wood looked like it was recovered from a large boat filled with animals. I told them that I wanted the amps and they said OK. I have explored the possibility of Bi-amping the 4 CWs using my M-117s for the bottom and some nice little tubes for the top W/Passive X-Overs and Altec horns. They worked last Sunday.What are they worth? Anyone? I know that I can get them for a song. Just dont want to "go to hell" in the process. tc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach7 Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Working Mac MC-30s go for $300-500 each depending upon condition. Offer them $500 total and you can sleep well at night (discovery counts for something, plus they don't have to go find a buyer). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach7 Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Plus, the Mac C-20 is a real sleeper. Some people like it better than the C-22. Offer them $500 for that for sleeping well at night. Maybe you can trade for labor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khorn58 Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Guts are not just guts to me . As there are many diffrent speakers and crossovers used over the years in the Klipsch Lines. I have a one early Hersey that has the diffrent mid horns ect. just looking for more to complet a set for suround sound right now I have 3 early need 2 more for the rears. I not in the antiqu bizz just like to look and sound of the old klipsch. someday I hope to have a pair of mac 30,s to power my old khorns. You should buy the whole set up and try it out u might like it and not want to sell. But if you do want to sell the model H let me know. the macs are worth more than I have right now.
