Introduction
· Power Output
The MCC602TM consists of two separate power amplifier
channels, each capable of 300 watts into 2, 4 or 8 ohm
loudspeakers with less than 0.005% distortion.
· Mono Parallel Operation
The MCC602TM can be set in Mono Parallel Operation
with 600 watts output into 1, 2, or 4 ohm loudspeakers with
less than 0.005% distortion. It can also function as two 300
watt amps both amplifying the same mono input signal.
· High Current Output
A peak output current of 50 amperes ensures that the
MCC602TM will successfully drive high quality loud-
speakers, such as McIntosh, for a truly exciting sound ex-
perience.
· Fully Balanced Circuitry
The MCC602TM amplifier is fully balanced from input to
speaker output. Two matched amplifiers operate in PUSH-
PULL with their outputs magnetically combined in the
Output Autoformer. Each half of the amplifier contains
complementary balanced circuitry. The resulting double
balanced configuration cancels virtually all distortion. This
Now you can take advantage of traditional McIntosh stan-
dards of excellence in the MCC602TM. Two 300 watt high
current output channels will drive any high quality loud-
speaker system to its ultimate performance. The
MCC602TM reproduction is sonically transparent and ab-
solutely accurate. The McIntosh Sound is The Sound of
the Music Itself.
8. The MCC602TM incorporates the very latest in Fully Double
Balanced Circuitry. As a result, the Loudspeaker Negative
Connections are above chassis ground and are not common
between channels. Do not combine any connections together
or ground them.
9. In the event that MCC602TM Power Amplifier over heats, due
to improper ventilation and/or extremely high ambient
temperature, the built in protection circuits together with the
built-in cooling fans will activate. The Power Guard LEDs
will both continuously indicate On and no sound will be
heard. When the temperature of the MCC602TM has returned
to a safe condition, sound will return and the Power Guard
Indictors will return to normal operation.
General Notes, cont
circuit is possible ONLY with the exclusive McIntosh Out-
put Autoformer. The Balanced Input Connections guard
against induced noise and allow long cable runs without
compromising sound quality.
· Patented Autoformers
McIntosh designed and manufactured Output Autoformers
provide an ideal match between the amplifier output stages
and speaker loads of 2, 4 and 8 ohms. The Autoformers
also provide perfect DC protection for your valuable loud-
speakers.
· Power Guard
Both channels include the patented McIntosh Power Guard
circuit that prevents the amplifier from being over driven
into clipping, with its harsh distorted sound that can also
damage your valuable loudspeakers.
· Sentry Monitor
McIntosh Sentry Monitor power output stage protection
circuits ensure the MCC602TM will have a long and
trouble free operating life.
· Thermal Protection with Multi-Speed Cooling Fans
Built-in thermal protection circuits guard against overheat-
ing which could shorten the normal long life expectancy of
your McIntosh power amplifier. Cooling fan speed is con-
trolled by temperature sensors attached to the interior of
the extruded aluminum cooling tunnel. The fans normally
run at a quiet low speed, when needed the fans will auto-
matically switch to a higher speed for increased cooling.
· Illuminated Power Meters
The Illuminated Power Output Watt Meters on the
MCC602TM are peak responding and almost ten times
faster than a professional VU meter. They also indicate the
true power output of the amplifier regardless of the loud-
speaker impedance, as they measure both the voltage and
current going to them.
