Introduction
·
Power Output
The MCC222 consists of two separate power amplifier
channels, each capable of 110 watts into 4ohm speakers
with less than 0.005% distortion.
·
Two Bridgeable channels
The MCC222 includes two 110 watt amplifier channels
which can be set in bridged configuration for 220 watts
output.
Now you can take advantage of traditional McIntosh stan-
dards of excellence in the MCC222 power amplifier. Two
110 watt high current output channels will drive any high
quality loudspeaker system to its ultimate performance.
The MCC222 reproduction is sonically transparent and ab-
solutely accurate. The McIntosh Sound is The Sound of
the Music Itself.
·
High Current Output
A peak output current of 35 amperes ensures that the
MCC222 will successfully drive high quality loudspeakers
such as McIntosh for a truly exciting sound experience.
·
Built-in Selectable Crossover Filters
Both channels have 18dB per octave high pass filters with
selectable corner frequencies of 120Hz or 80Hz to allow
use with subwoofers.
·
Subwoofer Line Output
A line level low pass filter output is provided drive an ex-
ternal subwoofer power amplifier. The inputs of both chan-
nels are summed for this output.
·
Noise Canceling Inputs
Interference produced by other sources in a vehicle are not
amplified by the MCC222.
·
Power Guard
Both channels include the patented McIntosh Power Guard
circuit that prevents the amplifier from being overdriven
into clipping with its harsh distorted sound that can also
damage your valuable loudspeakers.
·
Sentry Monitor
McIntosh Sentry Monitor power output stage protection
circuits are present on both channels to ensure the
MCC222 will have a long and trouble free operating life.
·
Speaker Protection
If for any reason, a DC (Direct Current) voltage appears at
the speaker output terminals, a built-in circuit turns off the
amplifier power supplies to prevent damage to your valu-
able loudspeakers.
