Preview! McIntosh C22 Preamplifier Restoration

Not all that long ago in a land pretty damn far away I restored a McIntosh C22 preamplifier that (like me) dates back to 1967. Maybe someday I’ll get around to making a video showing the full restoration, but for now enjoy this short preview.

Amazing video restoration on the MC2105! Inspired me to pull the trigger on one 4 months ago, thanks to your video and amazing detailed explanation on every single step for the restoration! Your C22 teaser, inspired me again to pull the trigger again, and finally it’s here! Can’t wait for your restoration videos soon! I truly appreciate your work and help you are offering to this already amazing hobby and passion! Thank you! Keep them coming! 🤝🏼

Thanks

That is a work of art. I bet it sounds great especially with those vintage Telefunken tubes. I think that era was definitely the golden age...

[@FluxCondenser]

Thank you! Yeah and it’s a real beauty and sounds absolutely great paired with the MC2105 amp. Truly was the golden age.

@@FluxCondenseri have a C22 and 2105 both mint that need restored! My plan is to go to Audio Classics for this… any words of wisdom appreciated!

Been hoping and praying you show the full restoration video on this one for a long time. My C11 is in beautiful working condition. The C11 being the same as the C22 electrically.

More to come!

Well well well, just inherited one from my father in laws' estate and it's not working.... please do the full video. I've hit the sub and notification, the rest is down to you 😁

[@FluxCondenser]

Will do

[@BoggWeasel]

@@FluxCondenser Fantastic, hopefully it's something I can fix, if not, is it worth searching out a HiFi repair shop? I don't know much at all about vintage HiFi... thank you.

Any chance the full restoration video of C22 will be posted? Many thanks
