McIntosh MR78 tuner

Probably McIntosh's best tuner

Fully working and without any repairs. A true survivour of it's days. Overall condition is good, the exterior shows a bit of wear due to many years of service. Price was dropped due to that.

The McIntosh MR78 is highly regarded for superior selectivity and sensitivity with low distortion. The MR78 was designed by Richard Modaferri and uses his patented RIMO filter, an IF passband filter with remarkable adjacent channel rejection and user selectable passbands.
Five element tuning capacitor improves RF front end characteristics; more tuned circuits for better selectivity. Silver plated chassis and RF coils for better shielding, lower losses and higher Q circuits.
Highest spurious rejection 100dB (IHF) and highest image rejection 110dB (88 to 108 MHz). This means you receive the stations at only the right place on the dial. You don't receive the same stations, or some mixture, as you tune across the dial.
