1. The following Connecting Cable is available from
the McIntosh Parts Department:
Power Control Cable Part No. 170-202
Six foot, 2 conductor shielded, with two 1/8 inch
stereo mini phone plugs.
2. For additional connection information, refer to the
owner’s manual(s) for any component(s) connected
to the MC75.
3. The MC75 mutes the speaker output for approxi-
mately fifteen seconds when first turned on.
4. For the best performance and safety it is important
to always match the impedance of the loudspeaker
to the Power Amplifier connections. Refer to step 5
on page 10.
Note: The impedance of a Loudspeaker actually var-
ies as the Loudspeaker reproduces different
frequencies. As a result, the nominal impedance
rating of the Loudspeaker (usually measured at
a midrange frequency) might not always agree
with the impedance of the Loudspeaker at low
frequencies where the greatest amount of power
is required. Contact the Loudspeaker Manufac-
turer for additional information about the actual
impedance of the Loudspeaker before connecting
it to the McIntosh MC75.
5. When discarding the unit, comply with local rules
or regulations. Batteries should never be
thrown away or incinerated but disposed
of in accordance with the local regulations
concerning battery disposal.
