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"?

Currently I have a Krell 400xi driving a pair of Proac Response 1sc's.

I have heard Mac's without autoformers and they do sound great and have lots of power. I'm just curious about the differences in the two designs.

Sid42, why do you hate autoformers?

Thanks for the reply's.
