Never came back to this site to see the responses. Lol! I paid $500 for the Mcintosh 7270, & $200 for the MX132. I ended up getting Martin Logan Request Electrostat's, B&W 604 S3's, but downsized to some B&W 805 Nautilus for now. Excellent price for the McIntosh pieces. I own a 7270 and it’s a sweet amp.
