This 12-channel amplifier, capable of delivering 50 watts per channel, has a pleasant appearance and can be mounted in a rack. The integrated cooling system eliminates the need to install noisy fans. The back panel has volume controls for each channel, four digital inputs, two optical and two coaxial. There are BUS connectors for connecting multiple amplifiers.
The power of the device is 120 watts per channel, which allows for effective amplification for voicing an area of more than 100 square meters. With a resistance of 4 ohms, the power increases to 150 watts. The high efficiency of the amplifier made it possible to eliminate noisy active cooling, traditional radiators are enough to maintain a normal operating temperature even with many hours of operation.
The McIntosh MI347 amplifier is equipped with a range of proprietary protection technologies, including an anti-overload Power Guard that protects speakers and a Sentry Monitor that protects against short circuits. The Power Control system allows you to synchronize the switching on and off of the amplifier and other McIntosh components, such as the MX100 processor. In addition, the McIntosh MI347 switch-on and off system is implemented based on the presence of a useful signal at one of the inputs.
The McIntosh MI254 4-channel digital amplifier is a versatile multi-channel amplifier, ideal for use in a home theater or stereo sound reproduction system. It outputs 250 watts to 8 ohm speakers or 300 watts to 4 ohm speakers thanks to its sophisticated digital feedback switching amplifiers. These amplifiers are connected to extremely reliable power supplies that deliver performance levels rarely achieved in distributed audio.
The MC8207 is a 7-channel amplifier that was designed to work as part of a home theater. You can use all seven channels to sound the system in a large room, or five for movies and two for a pair of speakers in an adjacent room. The amplifier outputs 200 watts per channel for speakers with an impedance of 4 or 8 ohms.
