| MC352 into varying-load speaker? Sean,On the 4 to 1 point. If the amp is terminated at 2.3 ohms before the autoformer and the autoformer has taps for 2,4, and 8 ohms, the autoformer does not have a very high matching ratio. The 2.3 ohm point is where the output stage is most line... | |
| MC352 into varying-load speaker? Sean,The frequency response of the MC352 is 20Hz to 20 KHz + 0, -.25 dB or 10Hz to 100 KHz + 0, -3DB. Since the amp is underrated at 350 watts per channel it will actually do the 350 at 100 KHz. With todays modern high speed output transistors thi... | |
| MC352 into varying-load speaker? Dampening factor, slew rate, phase shift, and many other parameters are often mentioned as the key to great amplifier sound. You can find amps that excel in any one of these specs or not and the amp is still regarded as sounding good. The MC352 wi... | |

| Mcintosh meter bulbs Clip the leads on the old bulbs and unsolder one side at a time. Drop the new bulb in, bend over the leads and solder. This works the best.Ron-C | |

| Is Mcintosh mc2300 a good amp for Magnepan MG-IIIA Matt,The MC2300 has lots of watts, typically about 450 per channel and will drive just about any speaker due to the flexibility of the output autoformer which has taps for every speaker impedance. This amp will be happy if you can run a dedicated ... | |
| Best tube AM/FM tuner I would leave out the FM-200 Fish or MR67 McIntosh which is like the 71 in many ways. Which one is best depends on condition and the skill of your tech.Ron-C | |
| WHOA This isn't what I expected. The MA6500 is a current model and is direct coupled, no autoformers. All McIntosh SS amps since the 70s have Power Guard, Sentry Monitor, and turn on inrush protection, etc.Rontube | |
| Mcintosh C2200 The C2200 is microprocessor controlled. One of the features this allows is the ability to trim each input up or down by 6 dB. Due to and error in programing the micro some C2200s were shipped where the trim could only be adjusted down. If you have... |
