The McIntosh MC901 Dual Mono Amplifier captures every bit of expertise that the company has refined since its inception in the 1940s. Since 1960, McIntosh Labs has been behind some solid state amplifiers that have been used to echo the words of historic speeches and even some of the legendary performances at the hallowed ground of Woodstock. The latest release of a dual-mono amplifier very well may be the pinnacle of their engineering efforts. A 300-watt vacuum tube powers the MC901’s mid and upper drivers for unparalleled acoustics. The amp channels 600 watts of dedicated power to its sub-woofers for earth-shaking bass. The expert engineering behind McIntoch’s Autoformer technology delivers every bit of power to 2, 4, and 8 Ohm impedance speakers.

Even though this amplifier’s single-chassis design encompasses some cutting edge components, it’s outfit with an emblematic McIntosh Blue wattmeter. A staple of the company’s amps for decades, this display grounds the imposing, technically advanced appearance of the MC901 with a sense of something familiar.
