Audiophiles,

I have a MC 60 that is NM in all respects expect for it's output
transformer.

I need advice concerning either buying a functioning used one[poor cosmetics
preferred] or having mine rewound.

Thanks in advance for any help/advice.

What made it fail ?

Transformers don't just fail. They fail because they are abused, often
because there is DC on them from bad caps or bad output devices.

As a result, you won't find them normally stocked as spare items. And
because the MC 60 is actually worth some money, you won't see people
parting them out very often.

You can call McIntosh and see if they have any, but I suspect you are in
for a call to Peter Dahl Co. to have yours rewound. And if you have one
rewound, I suggest you have both of them rewound so the two channels match
perfectly.

Phil,

I know this is 4 years ago to the date, but was just wondering what you did with the Mc60. Wondering if you kept it or parted it out. I have a Mc60 without the front emblem that I've been on the hunt for forever. Many thanks if you could help or let me know. Thanks.
