Overview

The McIntosh MC2301 is a monoblock vacuum tube power amplifier, providing 300 Watts of classic tube amplification per channel for the most demanding loudspeakers. Its proprietary Unity Coupled Circuit® ensures full power delivery into 2, 4, or 8 Ohm loads, while the Quad Balanced Design minimizes noise and distortion, achieving an impressive 117dB S/N ratio.

Each MC2301 houses eight KT88/6550 power tubes and two 12AT7s, protected by Sentry Monitorâ„¢ Tube Protection. Connectivity includes balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs. The iconic McIntosh aesthetic features a 1/2-inch thick black glass front panel, a single glowing blue Watt meter, visible tubes, and a polished stainless steel chassis. The MC2301 delivers a dynamic, lifelike sound, combining tube warmth with McIntosh precision for an unparalleled listening experience.

EXCLUSIVE MCINTOSHPOWER ASSURANCE SYSTEM
A collection of technologies that enhance performance and reliability while
protecting the amplifier and loudspeakers.

SENTRY MONITOR®TUBE PROTECTION
Fuse-less short-circuit protection circuit disengages the output stage before current exceeds safe operating level – resets automatically.

UNITY COUPLED OUTPUT CIRCUIT®
Output power is taken from both the plate and cathode of the output tubes. Conventional designs only take output from the latter. This allows ½ the turns
ratio, or ¼ the impedance transformation of conventional designs. The result is much lower distortion, wider bandwidth and increased loudspeaker damping factor.

WATTMETER
Swift, accurate response reveals program peaks so staying within the power limits
of your loudspeakers is easy.
