The McIntosh C220 is an amalgamation of McIntosh’ 56 year expertise in tube design and newly developed control circuits. It has all the flexibility modern systems require while maintaining the highest quality two channel performance.

As an example, all signal switching is done inside glass cylinders filled with inert gas. These switches are located adjacent to the input/output jacks, virtually eliminating crosstalk. Switch cleaning is a thing of the past.

The C220 allows for electronic, independent adjustment Level settings for each of the eight source inputs from either the front panel or remote control. Channel Balance is electronically adjusted and stored in memory.

The front panel ¼” Headphone Jack has a unique feature, Headphone Mode Mute. Press Mute to activate the normal loudspeaker mute mode then press the mute button in for approximately 3 seconds to activate the Headphone Mute Mode. From here adjust headphone volume and switch between sources.

Particular attention as been paid to the MM Phono Input. Its innovative circuit incorporates time-proven 12AX7 Vacuum Tubes. The brilliance of its design is reflected in both its simplicity and superior performance.

McIntosh's newest addition to its acclaimed Heritage Products series succeeds equally well as both a stand-alone component and as the companion to either the MC2000 or the MC2102 Vacuum Tube Power Amplifier. Created to make the most of both new and venerable technology, the C2200 relies on vacuum tubes for all signal amplification, with spectacular results.

The debate over which sounds better; tubes or transistors is still going strong after forty years. McIntosh has led in both technologies and with the C1000, McIntosh raises the bar once again.

The C1000 is a three chassis design that allows the customer the flexibility to choose solid state, vacuum tube or both. All three modules can be combined for the ultimate in flexibility, with each source available through either preamplification module, selectable at the push of a remote control button.

Music handling is accomplished in its own Dual Mono, preamplification module, yielding over 130 dB of channel separation for ultimate stereo fidelity.
