This maintenance manual provides specifications and component information for the MC275 stereo power amplifier. It includes a voltage and resistance chart that lists the expected voltage and resistance readings for each tube when the amplifier is operating normally. It also lists special components that are unique to the MC275, including filter capacitors, chokes, resistors, switches, rectifiers, and transformers, which can be ordered directly from McIntosh Laboratory for repair.
