on McIntosh Power Amplifiers. A 3.5mm stereo mini 

phone plug is used for connection to the Power Con-

trol, Trigger and Passthru Outputs.

Data Port Connectors

The Data Out Ports send Remote 

Control Signals to Source Compo-

nents. A 3.5mm stereo mini phone 

plug is used for connection.

IR IN Port Connectors

The IR IN Port also uses a 3.5mm 

stereo mini phone plug and allows the 

connection of other brand IR Receiv-

ers to the MA9000.

RS232-C Data Port Cable

The RS232 Data Cable is a 3.5mm stereo mini phone 

plug to a sub miniature DB 9 connector:

Output Terminal Connector

When cables with spade lugs are used 

for Loudspeaker Connection, the spade 

lugs need an opening of at least 3/10 inch 

(7.6mm) 

McIntosh Plug-In Jumper Connector

The MA9000 utilizes two phono style Plug-In Jump-

ers to connect the Preamplifier Output to 

the Power Amplifier Input.

Note: The Jumper Connector is available 

from the McIntosh Parts Department:

McIntosh Jumper Connector Part No. 117781

XLR Connectors

Below is the Pin configuration for the XLR Balanced 

Connectors on the MA9000. Refer to the diagram for 

connection:

 

PIN 1: Shield/Ground

 

PIN 2: + Output

 

PIN 3: - Output

Power Control and Trigger Connectors

The Power Control Trigger Output Jacks send and 

Passthru Input Jack receives Power 

On/Off Signals (+12 volt/0 volt) 

when connected to other McIntosh 

Components. An additional connec-

tion is for controlling the illumina-

tion of the Power Output Meters 

1. For additional connection information, refer to the 

owner’s manual(s) for any component(s) connected 

to the MA9000.

2. Apply AC Power to the MA9000 and other McIn-

tosh Components only after all the system compo-

nents are connected together. Failure to do so may 

cause a malfunction of system operations as the 

Microprocessor’s Circuitry inside the components 

is active when AC Power is applied.

3. 

The MA9000 includes an Power Mode Auto Off 

Feature and the default setting is enabled.

 For 

additional information including how to disable it, 

refer to page 22.

4. When Power Amplifier Protection Circuitry of 

the MA9000 has activated, the Front Panel Power 

Guard LEDs are illuminated continuously and the 

sound will be muted.

5. When the Power Transformer has overheated due 

to improper ventilation and/or high ambient operat-

ing temperature, AC Power is removed from the 

MA9000. Normal operation will resume when the 

operating temperature is in a safe range again.

6. For the best performance and safety, it is important 

to always match the impedance of the Loudspeaker 

to the Power Amplifier connections. Refer to pages 

11 and 12.

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 MA9000.

7. The MA9000 Remote Control is capable of operat-

ing other components. For additional information 

go to www.mcintoshlabs.com.

8. The IR Input, with a 1/8 inch mini phone jack, is 

configured for non-McIntosh IR sensors such as 

a Xantech Model DL85K Kit. Use a Connection 

Block such as a Xantech Model ZC21 when two 

or more IR sensors need to be connected to the 

MA9000. The signal from a connected External 

IR Sensor will have priority over the signal from 

the Front Panel IR Sensor.

9. 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 regula-

tions concerning battery disposal.

10. For additional information on the 

MA9000 and other McIntosh Products please visit
