More components
Preamplifiers
McIntosh C53
The device has a new removable DA2 module, where all digital inputs and associated signal processing circuits are assembled in a single place. The idea is for the user to easily replace the board as digital audio formats evolve, without having to replace the entire preamp.
Preamplifiers
McIntosh C2700
In addition to the digital-to-analog converter (and the McIntosh C2700 has a very good one - proprietary Quad Balanced technology, ready to work with signals up to DSD512 and DXD 384 kHz), there is also a Dolby and DTS spatial sound decoder with stereo conversion. Thus, the device will work perfectly with movie sound, easily integrate into a home cinema (there is a Home Theater Pass-Through mode), and also interface with TV via HDMI ARC.
Preamplifiers
McIntosh C49
The device has 2 XLR, 3 RCA inputs, a phono corrector module (MM/MS), a pair of coaxial, a pair of optical connectors and a USB interface. There is also an on-board MCT connector for communication with McIntosh transports. The digital-to-analog converter of the model uses chips in Quad Balanced mode and accepts signals up to PCM 32/384 and DSD256.
Preamplifiers
McIntosh C55
The McIntosh C55 preamp takes the best out of the C53 model, while taking the sound quality to a whole new level. The device is equipped with an 8-band analog equalizer to fine tune the music and create a personalized sound.
Preamplifiers
McIntosh C8
It has a built-in universal phono corrector for pickup heads with a movable magnet and a movable coil, a headphone amplifier, and also provides the ability to install an optional DA2 digital module. The circuit is traditionally based on four 12AX7 triple triodes hidden in branded protective cages.
