C2600 tube preamp
The C2600 builds on the C2300 and C2500 - two of McIntosh's most successful vacuum tube preamps - while adding our advanced digital audio section for DSD and DXD support and an improved tube circuit design.
A versatile preamp with an extensive set of 16 inputs for connecting virtually any analog or digital music source.
The analog and digital sections are housed separately in our dual chassis design to avoid signal distortion.
Bass and treble tone controls let you adjust each source as needed.
Up to three stereo amplifiers can be connected simultaneously; two of them can
on and off to simplify audio distribution throughout the home audio distribution.
