McIntosh MC2505 Stereo Power Amplifier – Genuine McIntosh Glass – Original Bulbs – Original Double Box
Beautiful vintageMcIntosh MC2505 Solid State Stereo Power Amplifierin very good overall condition andfully tested, working great.
This is one of McIntosh’s classic early solid-state amplifiers, underrated at50 watts per channel, with the iconic black glass face, blue power meters, and unmistakable vintage McIntosh styling.
A major cosmetic plus on this example is thefront glass, which was replaced withgenuine original McIntosh glass sourced from Audio Classics. This is not reproduction glass. The face presents extremely well and gives the amplifier a very clean appearance.
The amplifier also retains itsoriginal incandescent bulbs and lighting. It has not been converted to LEDs, which will appeal to anyone wanting to keep the original look and character.
There are a couple of cosmetic details from the original owner that I want to disclose clearly. The top metal cover had the previous owner’s name/marking etched into the center area. That section was refinished and painted, and the marking is now much less noticeable, but it is still faintly visible from certain angles if you look for it. The previous owner’s name is also still present on the rear of the amplifier.
These are cosmetic issues only and do not affect MC2505 stereo power amplifier

The packaging shows expected age, tape, staining, and storage wear, but it is still a very valuable addition for proper storage and safer shipment of this amplifier.
Please note:the serial number printed on the box doesnotmatch the serial number of this amplifier. It is genuine MC2505 packaging, just not the original factory-matched box for this particular unit.
Overall, this is a very attractive and fully functional MC2505 with genuine McIntosh glass, original lighting, and original double-box packaging. It would make an excellent addition to a vintage McIntosh system, listening room, or collection.
Please review all photos carefully for the exact cosmetic condition, especially the faint refinished area on the top cover and the previous owner’s name on the rear.
The amplifier will be packed with exceptional care for shipment.
