MA2275 Issue need some advice


Looking for some advice. McIntosh MA2275 integrated and the left channel sounds dirty, at higher volumes the bass sounds staticy and broken, almost like a blown speaker. Using B&W 805D's, swapping the speakers the problem is still there but on the other speaker so its coming from the amp and not the speaker. Do the tubes need replacing?

G5flier, I would recommend using the augiogon system including feedback and dispute process to get it right with you and the seller. Based on what you have said, the repair should be the responsibility of the seller or you should be able to return it for a full refund. I can see a tube getting damaged during shipping but it doesn't seem like this is your issue.
G looks like your getting pretty good feedback. Nothing I can really add here.

I did reach out to Mc customer service after my tube blew just to ensure I understand my options.

Good Luck.
A big thank you to everyone that replied to the thread, many great ideas! The 2275 is heading to the doctor in the morning.
The MA2275 came back from the Dr today with a clean bill of health...blown resister on the left channel was the problem. Thank you again for all the advise, everyone was really awesome and a big help.
