I know I'm new to these parts, but I've just got to tell someone who will appreciate it.

I'm so freaking jazzed right now!!! :biggrin:

My RTA 12's are done, as you can read about in my other thread... So I now have the Speakers I have always wanted (Well, not THE speakers - those would be the SDA SRS 1.2's - maybe down the road)...

Now - Tomorrow I'm completing a 13 year journey. The first time I saw a McIntosh amp was before I was married, in around 96 or so..... Always said I would one day own a classic such as that. Well, I'm picking up a MC2100 in real good shape (which I will be recapping soon after). I can't believe I finally will have a system I can be proud of!!

Thanks for listening!!

    The MC-2100 will need attention.

    There was an MC-2100 restoration article in audioXpress magazine some years back; feel free to PM me if you'd like further information.

    I've found a bunch of info from various forums, and have started a re-capping plan of sorts, but I'm definitely interested - PM inbound shortly.

    From my reading, Terry Dewict (spelled wrong, I'm sure) at Audio Karma is thought to be THE guy to send a McIntosh piece for work, other than the factory or Audio Classics.

    Congrats on the mods and your new amp. I hope you enjoy them!!

    Sorry - I realized that this thread probably doesn't belong in here!!! Forgive the bandwidth suck... ;)

    Hawkeye - I sent Terry an email after finding his posts over at AK... Hopefully he will have time to get back with me. I'm finding a lot of folks here and elsewhere are proving quite helpful!
