The
McIntosh MC301 monoblock amplifier delivers 300 watts of power into a
single channel at 2, 4 or 8 ohms. Both balanced and unbalanced inputs
are included for connecting your preamplifier, along with balanced and
unbalanced outputs for ease of connecting bi-amp configurations. Its
monoblock design is the ultimate in system configuration as each speaker
has its own dedicated amp, guaranteeing maximum channel separation and
audio fidelity.

"This is so definitely McIntosh, with goose bumps guaranteed!" - Stereo+

"Smooth?
You bet. Realistic timbre? Check. Instruments and voices sound
staggeringly realistic with no edge or glare whatsoever? Got it." - Tone
Audio

While it is physically smaller than our other amplifiers
thanks to its space saving 6” tall chassis, it's still full of all the
technology McIntosh is known for and will perform to the same high
standards as any of our amps. The McIntosh output Autoformer™ ensures
every speaker receives full power regardless of its impedance. With our
Quad Balanced design, any noise is cancelled inside the Autoformer,
yielding the highest power with the least amount of distortion. Our
unique Power Guard® circuitry prevents harsh sounding clipping that
could damage your speakers. Your speaker cables will be securely
connected to the amp with our speaker binding posts.

Has "plenty
of grip available but little or no sense of the edginess that can often
accompany serious power... If you're looking to indulge in your music
instead of the sound it makes, then the C52 and MC301 are 'strongly
recommended.'" - Hi-Fi+

The MC301 is completed by the classic
McIntosh black glass front panel, silver end caps and a large, easy to
read blue watt meter that is globally recognized as a symbol of quality
audio. Impress your friends and family with the legendary performance
only McIntosh can deliver by adding the MC301 to your audio system.
