Producing a minimum of 75 watts per channel in stereo with 2, 4, or 8-ohm speakers, the MA2275 combines classic McIntosh vacuum tube audio performance with state-of-the-art control circuitry. The MA2275 features include a built-in low noise moving magnet phono input, one set of XLR jacks for a balanced input, 6-sets of unbalanced inputs, preamp out/amplifier in loop, and an extra set of pre-outs. The exclusive McIntosh Unity Coupled output circuit evenly distributes the load to the output tubes and provides clean power over the entire frequency range in the MA2275 power stage. This unique feature enables the MA2275 to operate at maximum efficiency with extremely low noise and distortion while delivering full power without stress. McIntosh Silent Electromagnetic Input Switching utilizes ruthenium contacts sealed in glass cylinders filled with an inert gas to prevent signal degradation. Because the switching nodes are located on circuit boards at the inputs themselves, McIntosh Silent Electromagnetic Switching eliminates internal wiring in the signal path and literally brings the switch to the input.The MA2275 will ship early 2004 at a MSRP of $6,100.
