The single-block Quad Balanced MC611 power amplifier produces 600 watts of power. So the power is enough to satisfy almost all speakers. You can easily connect the MC611 pair to your more impressive home stereo system, or you can also use them as a power source for your home theater. Thanks to McIntosh's Autoformer technology, your speakers will receive a full 600 watts of power regardless of whether the impedance is 2, 4 or 8 ohms, giving you the opportunity to get the most out of the MC611.
The MC611 has received numerous updates and improvements compared to the previous 600 watt monoblock model. Chief among them is that the filter capacity has been doubled, resulting in a dramatic 55% increase in dynamic headroom from 1.8dB to 2.8dB. This doubling of filter capacity also helps improve low-bass performance.
The front panel has a new direct LED backlight, which improves the amplifier's appearance and color accuracy. In addition, the Autoformer and power transformer remain in the same place just behind the front panel, but in new glass cases. Behind them are two McIntosh Monogrammed Heatsinks that combine with advanced high current output transistors to help eliminate thermal balance lag. The block diagram of the amplifier is added to the panel located between the heatsinks.
There are still 3 sets of Solid Cinch speaker binding posts on the back (1 set for each speaker impedance), but more space has been added between each set for easier speaker cable management. An environmentally friendly power management system turns off the amplifier after a certain period of time when no input signal is detected. Other improvements include redesigned internal wiring and updated circuit components.
The amplifier contains numerous McIntosh technologies:
"The MC611s offer Massive power with minimal distortion at all frequencies, into any load. In doing so they are virtually unique… Easy going silky smooth sound, richly detailed and dynamically awesome." Awarded 5 out of 5 Globes. - Hi-Fi World
