McIntosh MX 130 as a 2 channe preamp tuner


I am thinking of building up a second system for my office and I have looked around at used equipment. The MX 130 looks like a pretty good value as just a stereo tuner/preamp. Stereophile B with a 7083 tuner to boot. Any thoughts or opinions on this?

Thanks

Ive owned both, MX118 is an excellent piece. However for a couple of hundred dollars you get all the extra features plus the very important Phono stage, and THX with the MX130 should you want to switch to HT ( not available with mx118 ). Best of luck.
