MC1.25KW AC
Beauty and the Beast
The MC1.25KW AC "Quad Balanced Power Amplifier" is McIntosh's latest and most modern power amplifier. Redesigned from the ground up, it replaces the venerable MC1.2KW AC as the most powerful single chassis monoblock. A quick look at this almost 72 kg power amplifier is enough to be sure that there is power and impulse capability in abundance. But it's only when you hear this new power amplifier that you understand the outstanding sound quality it offers.
The MC1.25KW delivers 1,200 watts with a nearly imperceptible total distortion of 0.005%. McIntosh Autoformer™ technology makes this near-ludicrous performance available for 2, 4 or 8 ohm speakers.
A large number of updates and improvements went into the MC1.25KW. For example, a 50% increase in filter capacity improves low-frequency performance and increases dynamic range. The top of the amplifier showcases an updated yet distinctive McIntosh industrial design that is a close match to current McIntosh products or those made decades ago. The audio autoformer and power transformer are located just behind the front panel, with a recessed glass plaque on the top featuring the Mc logo and the amplifier's model number.
Unlike its smaller integrated amplifier brothers, the new monoblock has a total of 4 highly efficient McIntosh Monogrammed Heatsinks™ with an embedded Mc logo. The high-current output transistors behind it eliminate thermal response delays so effectively that the very first note sounds like it does after hours of fascination.
Other McIntosh features in the MC1.25KW AC include:
Power Guard®?: Monitors signal levels at the speed of light and adjusts them as needed to help rule out speaker damage in the event of high levels of distortion and clipping.
Sentry Monitor™: McIntosh's short circuit protection circuit that shuts off the power amplifier before current exceeds regular operating levels and automatically resets when operating conditions return to normal.
Gold plated speaker terminals that resist corrosion and ensure a high quality signal is always sent to the speakers.
The MC1.25KW AC Monoblock is undoubtedly another expression of the globally appealing McIntosh aesthetic with its 28cm blue glowing VU meter, black glass faceplate and solid side handles.
