McIntosh MA5300

Description

Description Freakuence!

Everything is in the right place. With power! But calm down, this is McIntosh…. and they make amplifiers with specifications that matter. These 100 watts are wonderfully stable. Sound? No screaming, no sharpness, no rush. With analog and digital inputs and, of course, the blue.

Details

This is your chance to finally get demo material from the coolest shop on earth. Yeah! Actually worth a lot more than the new price for this but we’ll restrain ourselves. Only used for listening sessions with our visitors, no private owner.

The price includes VAT. Entrepreneurs, take advantage of it.

We are happy to trade on it. Please especially forward what you may have available, we will be happy to assess whether we can put it in the shop.

Looking for another type from the brand’s current series? Send a message! We like to make something fun.
