Features and Benefits
LOGIC DRIVEN ELECTROMAGNETIC SWITCHING
DIGITAL LOGIC integrated circuits drive ELECTRO-
MAGNETIC SWITCHES for the most reliable, lowest
distortion signal switching available today.
SEPARATE LISTEN AND RECORD INPUT SWITCHING
Two independent input selectors that allow for
recording from one source while listening to another.
GOLD PLATED INPUT AND OUTPUT JACKS
Gold plating is chosen because of superior corrosion
resistance.
NINE PROGRAM SOURCE SELECTIONS
PHONO/AUX, CD1, CD2. TUNER, TAPE 1, TAPE
2. TAPE 3, and VIDEO for both LISTEN and RECORD.
MORE ILLUMINATED GLASS AREA
Over 80% of the front panel is glass with all control
nomenclature illuminated, even the push buttons.
EXCLUSIVE MclNTOSH TONE CONTROL CIRCUIT
The tone control circuit provides 12dB of BASS and
TREBLE boost or cut. However, at the center position
of the control, it automatically and completely removes
all tone circuit components from the signal path.
ACTIVE VARIABLE LOUDNESS COMPENSATION
Loudness compensation can be added at any setting
of the VOLUME control making it independent of
program level. Its circuit elements are removed from
the signal path when the control is full CCW.
DUAL PROCESSOR LOOPS
Separate processors can be used for RECORD and
LISTEN.
PRECISION VOLUME CONTROL
Left and Right sections for the volume control are
trimmed for superior tracking.
DOUBLE SHIELDED POWER TRANSFORMER
Copper and steel shielding eliminate hum pickup from
the power transformer.
