MC1.2KW - Monoblock Power Amplifier

The MC1.2KW produces a massive 1,200 watts. The MC1.2KW features the extraordinary McIntosh Quad Balanced Circuit. Each amplifier consists of two balanced amplifier circuits, the outputs of which are combined in the unique, hand-crafted McIntosh Output Autoformer. The result? Totally balanced operation from input to speaker output that cancels virtually all distortion.

The MC1.2KW can be used with all loudspeaker types and features output connections that are optimized for 2, 4, and 8-Ohms for low distortion performance and maximum power transfer. With features such as DC failure protection and remote power control, the MC1.2KW is an ideal marriage of power and performance.

 MC402 - Stereo Amplifier

Sorta like putting a wine glass on a running monster truck and never spilling. Continuing the long tradition of innovation and exceptional performance, the MC402 Stereo Power Amplifier is rated to deliver a hefty 400 watts per channel in stereo or 800 watts in mono. It's extraordinary quad-differential design cancels virtually all distortion and consists of four complete amplifier circuits, each a mirror image of the other, whose outputs are combined in the unique McIntosh made Autoformers, delivering absolute transparency and musical accuracy into loads of 2, 4, or 8 ohms. A new three dimensional glass faceplate design adds elegance while the illuminated peak-responding meters show the true output regardless of load.

MC2102 - Vacuum Tube Power Amplifier

The MC2102 Vacuum Tube Amplifier shares key characteristics with the MC2000, including the fact that they were both designed and engineered by McIntosh co-founder Sidney Corderman. Rated at 100 watts x 2 or 200 watts x 1, the MC2102 uses eight tubes in each channel. Balanced Input and inversion is handled by a pair of 12AX7's. Twin 12AT7's provide voltage amplification and driver functions, feeding two pair of either KT-88s or 6550's. Configured for stereo, the MC2102 can power 2, 4, or 8-ohm loads. In parallel mono configuration it pushes 1,2,or 4-ohm loads and as a bridged mono device it drives 4, 8, or 16-ohm loads.

MC207 - 7-Channel Power Amplifier

The MC207 is the first amplifier to employ the newly developed DYNAMIC POWER MANAGERTM (DPMTM) circuit design. This unique McIntosh circuit allows the MC207 to deliver a full 200 watts x 7 channels into either 4 or 8-ohm loudspeakers. On the rear panel of the MC207 is an impedance selector for 4 or 8-ohms. If the 8-ohm position is chosen and the speakers are 4-ohms, the MC207 will automatically switch over to the 4-ohm position if the amplifier is driven hard. This switch adjusts both the output transistor rail voltages as well as bias level to maintain ultra low distortion. DPMTM allows the MC207 to be optimized for whatever speakers are used.  (also available in a 5 channel - MC205)

MC2301 - Monoblock Tube Amplifier

The McInotsh MC2301 is a 300 watts mono-block tube amplifier using eight of the famous KT88 tubes along with a strong power supply design for a rock-stable power output into an 8, 4 or 2 ohm load. McIntosh claims to have reached a SNR 117dB with this fully balanced mono-block. Available now!

MC501 - Mono Block Amplifier

Who needs a garage this Big Block goes in the house! The fully balanced MC501 delivers a massive 500 watts continuous power, and over 1200 watts of peak power into low impedances while maintaining noise levels 124dB below rated power. The extraordinary Quad-Differential design, a McIntosh exclusive, reduces noise and distortion to record setting levels by delegating an individual amplifier to each speaker output. The Quad-Differential design of the MC501 consists of two amplifier circuits, each the mirror image of the other, whose outputs are combined in the unique McIntosh Output Autoformer.

MC252 - 2-channel Power Amplifier

With 250 watts per channel at 0.005% maximum distortion across the entire audio spectrum, the MC252 Stereo Power Amplifier delivers lots of clean power. McIntosh's exclusive output autoformers insure the amplifier will always deliver full power, without stress, to any type of loudspeaker. Whether your speakers are 2,4 or 8 ohms, McIntosh Autoformers ensure you'll always get the power you've paid for. The two channels of the MC252 can also be bridged into a single channel that delivers 500 watts into 1,2,4,8 or 16 ohms. Power Guard circuitry is included, and the illuminated peak-responding meters show the true output regardless of load.

MC275 - Vacuum Tube Power Amp

The MC275 Vacuum Tube Amplifier was designed and engineered by McIntosh co-founder Sidney Corderman and the McIntosh Engineering Team. The MC275 uses balanced or single ended inputs and a compliment of (3) 12AX7A, (4) 12AT7 and either (4) KT-88s or 6550 tubes. Configured for 75 watt per channel stereo, the MC275 can power 4, 8, or 16-ohm loads. As a bridged mono amp it delivers 150 watts into 2, 4, or 8-ohm loads. THD is below 0.5% from 20 Hz to 20KHz at all times.
