    Nice find. If you are lucky and the fans are quiet you'll enjoy these amps very much.
    They sound excellent(I use the MC1250 and an MC650) and are very well built/over specified.

    Hi,
    Thank you for reading.
    The seller was already using with the fans unplugged.

    Hi,
    I just changed the fan on my amplifiers.
    The model chosen is the Noctua NF-R8 rotating at 800 revolutions / minute
    The result is very quiet

    Hi,
    Yes, really less noise.
    No, I do not have the electronic schematic of this amplifier.
    This summer I also change all the capacitors.

    Hi,
    The family has increased over a model MC1250.
    The model of Franck (cooky1257).
    Big sound.

    For more space, I just installed all the amplifiers in the attic above my listening room.
    More fan noise.
    The active filter EV DX46 was placed with the amplifiers, I command by the network.

    Hi,
    A hum appeared on the left channel of the MC1250, after some tests to verify that this does not come from a ground loop, I decided to changed.
    This amplifier is built in 1998 in the design life of capacitors.
    After opening the cover, a problem arises capacitors (15000uF/120v) used are not easily discoverable standards and unable to change size.
    Good news, these models are sold by MC2 for repairing.
