McIntosh MC901 Dual Mono Amplifier
McIntosh has been perfecting vacuum tube amplifiers since the 1940s and solid state amplifiers since the 1960s. Their amplifiers have been used at many historic events including presidential inaugurations and Woodstock, as well as in landmark sound systems like the Grateful Dead's Wall of Sound and Despacio.
From that heritage comes a truly one-of-a-kind home audio amplifier only McIntosh could dream of, designed and built as the ultimate solution for bi-amping loudspeakers: the McIntosh MC901 Dual Mono Amplifier.
