McIntosh C-100 preamplifier

Controller and Preamplifier

 

The McIntosh C100 Preamplifier/Controller is without question the finest audio preamplifier ever created. No design compromises were allowed in the quest for a preamplifier with absolute accuracy, total sonic purity and virtual elimination of distortion and audible noise. For those who have been searching for their "Last Preamplifier" your search is over.

 

Full features Remote Control

Full featured RC is included that will allow complete control of all front panel controls and switches

 

Power Control Output

A Power Control connection for convenient turn on of McIntosh power amplifiers and accessories is included.

 

Dual Chassis Design

Dual-Chassis design completely separates all power supply, microprocessor and control circuits from the pure audio circuits for total noise isolation

 

Balanced and Unbalanced Inputs/Outputs

Three balanced high level inputs, three balanced main outputs and one balanced tape output, are provided. Eight unbalanced inputs, three unbalanced outputs as well as listen and record processor loops are included.

 

Precision Tracking Volume Control

Volume levels are controlled by a microprocessor controlled logarithmic attenuator with a tracking accuracy of 0,1 dB. Levels change in 213 individual 0,5 dB steps.

 

Precision Volume Display

The front panel digital Volume display indicates the preamplifier gain in dB or percentage of available volume

 

Precision Parts

Only the finest precision 1% tolerance resistors and polypropylene capacitors are used throughout

 

Moving Coil and Moving Magnet Phono Input

Separate shielded precision RIAA phono preamplifier for low output moving coil phono cartridges, utilizes two double mu metal shielded, silver wire, step-up transformers. Precision RIAA phono preamplifier for moving magnet cartridges.

 

Ultra Low Distortion

Distortion levels of all types are less than 0,002%. Music is amplified with total transparency and accuracy
