I’m the second owner of a pair of 1976 McIntosh C28 and MC2105. 
ADS L1590, Rega Planet 2000 and RP6 TT. All still in use and loved. Now I want to find an MC2205 and bi-amp the speakers with a Sublime K231. 

I've had my McIntosh XRT 20 speakers, MR 78, and MC 2205 since 1987 along with a MCD 7007 from 1990; all still in use.I am  also the second owner of an McIntosh MC 240 that I have had for 12 years and is still in regular rotation.
