The Look

The well-recognized and expertly designed front panels of McIntosh products are illuminated with gold lettering in well-lit rooms and glowing teal in dim settings. In a stroke of genius, McIntosh founders Gordon Gow and Frank McIntosh decided to silkscreen the backside of the glass panel so that the lettering would not rub off. Because McIntosh products have proven to last more than a lifetime, this is truly a testament to their ability to stand the test of time in form and function.

 

The Experience

Take the MC1502 Vacuum Tube Amplifier, for example. Not only is this amp made to last a lifetime, but it would complement your interior décor beautifully on a credenza or shelf. It is also powerful. It’s a 150 Watt stereo amplifier with eight output vacuum tubes and eight small signal tubes, covered by a 12-gauge stainless wire cage in a powder black coating. With McIntosh’s Power Control technology, you can automatically turn other McIntosh preamps, turntables, and media streamers on or off, too, so the operation couldn’t be more simple.

There’s no need to fiddle with multiple remotes or unplug components for the sake of getting the most output from your speakers, either. Two Unity Coupled Circuit output transformers deliver the full 150 Watts regardless of the speakers’ impedance. The Captive Audio team can incorporate the MC1502 and other McIntosh products into your whole-home AV setup, so that you can listen to crisp, clear audio in every room of your home.
