Description
This audiophile disc changer is the end of an era having been manufactured by McIntosh Labs in the early 2000s, not long before the world of servers and streamers allowed for extended listening without changing a disc or LP. And, while 21 years old, this player still remains relevant today. Classic McIntosh production and sound....if youre after an old school disc changer that allows you to stuff 5 disks in and let er rip for the next 6 hours, this is the player for you. Oh, yeah.....and it sounds KILLER! I have been the only owner of this unit and it was used VERY lightly over the years, as it was an adjunct player in my system and only used for extended listening sessions. Overall hours used are very low. Further, it comes from a smoke-free environment where it has been extremely well cared for. No scratches issues of any kind. I have the original purchase receipt, the original owners manual, the original remote (which still has its original plastic covering on it) and power cord, all included in this sale. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you for looking.
