Really, to give you a good idea about this, one would need to know what speakers you would drive with the Mac Integrated, to discuss any advantage of the Autoformer output, in coupling with your speaker connection.
McIntosh Integrated Amplifiers
Autoformers vs. No Autoformers
What are the differences between the two types of McIntosh integrateds?
I'm not really familiar with autoformers or the advantage of them other than handling large Ohm swings? Is that correct?
Thanks very much. Someone please enlighten me because I really want a McIntosh amp and if I buy one without autoformers is it a true "McIntosh"?
