I hear you. I guess you could have the cables at the back, but then you wouldn't see the McIntosh MC275 lettering.

This is my favorite visually. So much character and g od 60's Scandinavian design.

Hate this new gui. Head-fi needs a UX designer. Here is the amp.

like a 57 chevy had a beautiful lovechild with a marantz tube amp.

Sometimes the beauty of something is like "enhanced" by the eyes or the ears of more experience and more mature others than us simple young mortals...Read the review of this magnificent amplifier by a very knowledgeable reviewer of tube amplifier....If i had money i will buy that in a heartbeat....

This was my amp in the 90s - Jadis DA30. I still own it, but it's in France in my parent's attic. I now live in the US, and although i could have it shipped here, I wonder how tricky it would be to switch from 220 to 110 volts.

110-220 converter? They're cheap, man!

Usually power tranny got two primary windings, connect in series for 220v, parallel for 110v. The word "usually" doesn't mean all the time so it could be impossible. Then again a converter solves everything! Just make sure a right wattage (V times amp).

That sounds like something I should seriously look into. I assume that would also work for my Meridian 207 CD player (although here, I have a Classé CDP 10, which is pretty good). Thanks for the info!

Whoa, nice gear collections!

I recently got a 110-220v/1500w converter for about $70 from amazon. It goes both ways, down and up converting.
