¥ 735,000 (tax included, around 2007)
Commentary
This is a stereo power amplifier that pursues low distortion, high efficiency and wide bandwidth without losing the originality of the MC275 released in 1961.
It uses Macintosh's unique unity couple circuit and bifilar winding TRANSFORMERS.
KT88 is used for the output stage.
The 4 Ω / 8 Ω / 16 Ω independent speaker terminals and unbalanced input terminals use gold plated terminals.
Also, gold plated contacts are used for the vacuum tube socket.
A mirror-finished stainless steel chassis is used.
