When moving speakers around your listening room  

To get the best possible sound can be both frustrating and fruitless.  
Depending on the size and type of the speakers, you could spend countless hours Getting them in just the right position and, even then, the sound still might not be Perfect, because the listening environment itself plays a huge role in defining that Sweet spot and achieving auditory bliss. 
 

Room treatments are another headache.   

You tell yourself that your speakers will sound way better with those gigantic bass traps You’ve been lusting after, but you can only fit so much stuff into a room before friends And loved ones either intervene or nominate you to star in one of those reality shows About people who hoard things.   

Indeed, this process of generating the desired audio orbs down to the millimeter can Quickly drive you mad.  And don’t even get us started on the tape marks on the floor.  

As a good audiophile buddy reminds us:  

“The amount of blue masking tape on your listening-room floor  

Is directly proportional to how close to a nervous breakdown you might be.” 

Meet Mac’s Magic Box 

Of course, a room that’s been properly treated with the speakers optimally placed is  Still the Holy Grail.  Unfortunately, most of us don’t ever quite achieve this, So, our rack of expensive gear never reaches its full potential.   

 This is why the engineers at McIntosh Labs created the MEN220.  It doesn’t use magic exactly; just a serious amount of heavy-duty science, To produce magical results, which seem all the more supernatural considering How Easy It is to Set-Up. 

The MEN220, McIntosh licensed Room Perfect Technology  From Danish audio wizard Peter Lyngdorf, whose Steinway Lyngdorf music systems, Which cost upwards of a couple hundred grand, utilize this proprietary room-correction Software to optimize the system for any listening environment.  

TONE Gear editor Bailey S. Barnard  

Has written about Steinway Lyngdorf more than once in these pages and has always Come away impressed. Whereas the Lyngdorf Systems require a certified technician 

To implement the optimization software,  

The MEN220  

Allows You, the end user, to place the box between your  

Amplifier and Preamplifier, or within a processor loop  

If your preamplifier has one.   

The MEN220  

works with balanced or single-ended components,  

So, it will integrate into Any system where a break between the  

Preamplifier and Power amplifier exist.   

Then, with a few simple measurements you’ll be on your way. 

it’s a lot easier than it sounds—and it’s certainly less maddening  

Then inching Your speakers into the exact right spot  

And festooning your room with foam sound Traps.   

Plus, it’s kind of a fun process that will make you feel like the  

Acoustic engineer you’ve always told yourself 

you had the ability to be. 

Once you fully install the MEN220,  

Break out the calibrated microphone and long cord  

That McIntosh includes in the box. 

The MEN220’s  

Onboard processor is equipped with internal microprocessors,  

Which measure the reflections in your room and make corrections  

for the peaks and dips in frequency response.   

The included literature instructs you to take the first reading  

As close as possible to where your head is when listening to music.   

This will return a reading, or “room-knowledge” score, of about 75%  

And will substantially improve how your system interacts with your room— But the MEN220 is capable of much more. 

Each taken from a different spot, increase the room-knowledge score. The higher the score, the more you will realize how much 

You were missing.   

Using the MEN220 with McIntosh’s C52 preamplifier  

Improves things even further, 

Thanks to the C52’s built-in graphic equalizer,  

Which allows you to fine-tune the MEN220’s audio achievements.
