50th Anniversary Limited Edition MC275

Back in October, McIntosh unveiled the 50th Anniversary Limited Edition MC275 tube power amplifier, in celebration of the amplifier's 50th birthday. We're happy to say that this week at CES, McIntosh announced that the Limited Edition model is now available.

Featuring a gold-toned chassis, the Limited Edition MC275 has the same tube circuit design of the original, but adds several advanced features including a multi-colored LED display to indicate different levels of activity, as well as a new High Speed Sentry Monitor circuit that automatically turns the amp off if a tube wears out. When the tube is replaced, normal operation is restored. In addition, the Limited Edition MC275 is equipped with Power Control input and output, so on-off operation can be controlled by a simple cable connection to any McIntosh preamp or processor.Read more

McIntosh Global Vice President for Sales & Marketing Linda Passaro noted: "In 1961, McIntosh reinvented the art and science of quality music reproduction with the debut of its original MC275 tube power amplifier. Since then, this legendary amp has continued to evolve, and set new standards for quality, musicality and reliability. Amazingly, even after 50 years, many of the very first MC275 amps are still in use and prized by their owners today. Our new Limited Edition amp celebrates the original for everything it is – and everything it has meant to generations of McIntosh customers for 'bringing their music to life.' This is truly a golden anniversary for the MC275, and years from now, music lovers who purchase a Limited Edition model will still be enjoying their investment in great sound!"Read more
