Installation

Installation

The MC205 can be placed upright on a table or 

shelf, standing on its four feet. It also can be custom 

installed in a piece of furniture or cabinet of your 

choice. The four feet may be removed from the bottom 

of the MC205 when it is custom installed as outlined 

below. The four feet together with the mounting 

screws should be retained for possible future use if the 

MC205 is removed from the custom installation and 

used free standing. The required panel cutout, ventila-

tion cutout and unit dimensions are shown.

Always provide adequate ventilation for your MC205. 

Cool operation ensures the longest possible operating 

life for any electronic instrument. Do not install the 

MC205 directly above a heat generating component 

such as a high powered amplifier. If all the compo-

nents are installed in a single cabinet, a quiet running 

ventilation fan can be a definite asset in maintaining 

all the system components at the coolest possible oper-

ating temperature.

A custom cabinet installation should provide the fol-

lowing minimum spacing dimensions for cool opera-

tion.

Allow at least 6 inches (15.24cm) above the top, 2 

inches (5.08cm) below the bottom and 1 inch (2.54cm) 

on each side of the Power Amplifier, so that airflow is 

not obstructed. Allow 19-1/2 inches (49.53cm) depth 

behind the front panel. Allow 7/8 inch (2.22cm) in 

front of the mounting panel

1

 for clearance. Be sure to 

cut out a ventilation hole in the mounting shelf accord-

ing to the dimensions in the drawing.

 When the MC205 is installed together with other McIn-

tosh Components, check clearances on all components 

before proceeding.
