Using the front controls you can also set the scope mode to L+R audio where the oscilloscope then reacts to incoming signals. We do not get these often so when these are set up at our testing bench it is a treat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey look awesome at night especially!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the coolest pieces of 1960's McIntosh equipment, and a perfect addition to any vintage system containing a tuner. Or if you want a super cool light show, it can connect to any system with a a tape or output. This would be a perfect match with a vintage McIntosh tuner such as a MR73.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis particular MI-3 has been serviced where various age affected components were replaced and it is working wonderfully now. This will be shipped with care in an original McIntosh box which is an absolute must for units like this with CRT displays.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSkyFi Cosmetic Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe touched up the glass as needed, Original Panloc text is no longer present.
