I had a MC2300 and ran it with a MAC C-29. A very musical combination. Also had a C-28 and C-26. Don't let anyone tell you that the C-26, or C-26 are dogs. They aren't. They are wonderful with excellent phono stages.
Having had many different preamps and amps, I always found Mac sounded best with Mac.
I wouldn't run the amp without a preamp. To easy to damage speakers that way. Remember the power we're talking about here. My 2300 rated at 300wpc bench tested at over 500wpc into 8 ohms. The 2500 would do much better.
