McIntosh creates tube amplifiers with the idea that this is something that you will cherish the rest of your life. This is not just a groundless claim; the fact is 80% of the McIntosh amplifiers produced since 1949 are still in use today, no other audio component manufacturer can make this claim. The exceptional longevity of McIntosh products owes to a design philosophy established with the very first McIntosh amplifier: that every component will be created with capacity so great that it will never be operated at or near its stress point. From the initial design process all the way to the shipping department, they take painstaking efforts to ensure that every McIntosh component is "perfect". Since the late 40's this rare philosophy has been the driving force behind this exemplary company and it has certainly been the reason why so many people love McIntosh components.

Hello,
Perhaps you can help with a project. I rescued an MC225 from a storage center. I can send photos.
The serial number is 00R0 2 -13 something or something else.
The amp chassis was painted battleship gray. After stripping, the chassis itself was found to be badly pitted.
Can this chassis be further cleaned and rechromed?
whom would you recommend?
I need the U-shaped bottom with the 2 side panels. Do you have them?
I have not powered it up. I do have some tubes on order and will variac it up then.
Thanks in advance.
Best wishes,
Joe
