The McIntosh MC611 is an impressive one-channel amplifier that can drive and power even the hungriest of speakers. The quad-balanced design of the amplifier eliminates any noise distortion and muddy sounds, and packs a massive 600-watt punch. Thanks to McIntosh lab's proprietary t Autoformer™ technology, the amplifier is capable of outputting all 600-watts to any speaker regardless of the speakers impedance.
The front panel to the McIntosh MC611 comes complete with direst LED backlighting for improved interaction and ease of use. Glass enclosures lay over the Autoformer and power transformer, and behind these components is two monogrammed heatsinks. The back of the amplifier features three sets of speaker binding posts, as well as a eco-friendly power management system, which will turn the amp off over a set idle time limit.
