MC2.1KW-AN

MCINTOSH
64 999 € RETAIL PRICE

Solid State Amplifier

The MC2.1KW consists of three separate modules: one Output Module and two Power Modules that each contain a 1,000 Watt amplifier.

The incoming audio signal enters the Output Module from the preamplifier. An in-phase signal is sent from the Output Module to one of the Power Modules and is amplified. At the same time, an out-of-phase signal is sent to the other Power Module and amplified.

Both amplified signals exit the Power Modules and reenter the Output Module where they drive opposite ends of the bi-filar wound McIntosh Autoformer™.

Thanks to our hand wound Autoformer, the full 2,000 Watts of power can be delivered into a speaker regardless if its impedance is 2, 4 or 8 Ohms.

The next generation MC2.1KW offers many sonic upgrades. Chief among them are substantially larger filter capacitors that improve the performance of low end frequencies as well as significantly improving dynamic headroom. These eight larger capacitors are located in the Power Modules behind the custom Power Bank that is visible through the front panel glass.

Dual sets of balanced and unbalanced inputs conveniently allow you to connect more than one preamplifier. This gives you the ability to easily switch between vacuum tube and solid state signals, such as from our reference level C12000 Solid State and Vacuum Tube Preamplifier that has outputs for both signal types, or from separate vacuum tube and solid state preamplifiers.

Exclusive McIntosh technologies that ensure your investment is protected and your experience flawless include: Power Guard®; Sentry Monitor ™; Quad Balanced Design; and Power Control.

MC2.1KW knows no bounds and it’s not limited to just being used with McIntosh speakers but can also be used with a wide variety of other speakers.
