Eight Output Devices Per Channel!
Solid state amplifiers get their power from the output devices used in the
amplification stage. Just like cylinders in a car’s engine, the greater the
number of devices per channel, the greater the available high-current
power for the crescendos in music, or the thrills, thunder and explosions
in movies. Performance is simply more effortless. It also means that the
amplifier will run cooler, making it more reliable.
Sound Purity and Integrity
Our design for MCA amplifiers follows the “Keep-It-Simple” principle. We
utilize the fewest possible number of parts in the signal path to maintain
the integrity of sound. All parts are of the highest quality and tolerance.
As a result, these remarkable amplifiers offer the profound sense of
musical purity, transparency and naturalness that is demanded by the
most discerning listener.
Mirror-Imaged Channels
Frequency response channel-matching in our amplifiers has always been
far better than the norm. In fact, MCA amplifiers are virtually mirror-
imaged. All amplifier channels offer identical performance. The musical
picture is incredibly vivid, seamless, and detailed, with a multi-channel
soundstage that is exceptionally clear, coherent and three-dimensional.
A New Level of Quiet!
Signal-to-noise ratio in MCA amplifiers is 120 dB … a truly remarkable
feat! Music and movie soundtracks simply appear out of “dead” silence
allowing you to become lost in the emotion of the original performance —
the mark (and the end goal) of a truly high-end audio-video component.
During even the most tranquil musical passages or dramatically quiet
moments in a movie, the background is so ‘black’ that it is audibly gone.
No Noise, Low Distortion
In a rare feat, transformer-induced
noise at the bass frequencies of 60 Hz,
120 Hz, and 180 Hz, has effectively
been eliminated. MCA amplifiers boast
vanishing noise and unbelievably low
levels of Total Harmonic Distortion.
Modular Design
Each amplifier channel is completely self-contained on its own board and
heatsink. In the rare event that service should be required, it can be done
quickly and easily by a qualified technician, minimizing the “down time”
of your system.
Massive Toroidal Power Supplies
MCA amplifiers deliver incredible dynamics thanks to massive “audio-
phile-approved”, conservatively rated power supplies designed with high
rail voltages. Advanced-generation toroidal power transformers are used
to ensure ultra-quiet performance by minimizing stray magnetic field
radiation. This provides the pure, clean, low-noise power that is needed
to reproduce the full dynamics of home theater and the most complex
and dynamic music recordings.
Stable as a Rock
Our amplifiers are incredibly stable into difficult, low-impedance speaker
loads, making these superb-sounding dynamos reliable performers in
even the toughest circumstances.
