The result is an eye-catching amplifier that enjoys the best of these two opposing audio philosophies all while reproducing music at the highest quality level. An all analog design, the MA352 has a vacuum tube preamplifier section that is powered by a pair of 12AX7A and a pair of 12AT7 vacuum tubes; its output stage is a direct coupled solid state amplifier that outputs 200 Watts per channel into 8 Ohm speakers or 320 Watts per channel into 4 Ohm speakers – enough power to properly drive virtually any set of loudspeakers. Dual scale blue Watt meters give an accurate readout of power output for both speaker impedances. The MA352 has 2 balanced and 3 unbalanced inputs plus 1 Moving Magnet phono input with adjustable loading for connecting a turntable. It has gold-plated speaker binding posts to help prevent corrosion and ensure a quality signal is sent over your speaker cables to your speakers. A stereo preamplifier output is available for connecting a higher-powered amplifier; it can also be used to connect 1 or 2 powered subwoofers for added low frequency performance. The MA352 is packed with numerous McIntosh technologies including: Our patented Power Guard® technology that monitors the output signal for over driving and makes real time micro adjustments to the input signal to prevent harsh sounding clipping that could potentially damage your speakers Our fuse-less short-circuit protection circuit Sentry Monitor™ that will disengage the output stage before current exceeds safe operating levels and then resets automatically when operating conditions return to normal McIntosh Monogrammed Heatsinks™ which are connected to advanced high current output transistors that minimize thermal equilibrium lag (or warm-up) time High Drive headphone amplifier with Headphone Crossfeed Director (HXD®) A 5-band analog tone control allows for manual adjustment of your favorite recordings (each band adjustable by ± 12dB) Home Theater Pass Through lets it be seamlessly integrated into a home theater system Power Control to send power on/off signals to connected McIntosh components for easy system power up and shutdown Data Ports to send remote control commands to connected source components Specifications Electronic Specifications Power Output per Channel 200 Watts into 8 Ohms320 Watts into 4 Ohms Number of Channels 2 Speaker Impedance 4 or 8 Ohms Rated Power Band 20Hz to 20kHz Total Harmonic Distortion 0.03% Dynamic Headroom 1.5dB Frequency Response +0,-0.5dB 20Hz to 20kHz Frequency Response, +0, -3dB 10Hz to 100kHz Sensitivity Phono (Moving Coil) N/A Sensitivity Phono (Moving Magnet) 2.5mV Sensitivity High Level (Balanced / Unbalanced) 0.5V/0.25V Sensitivity (Power Amp input) N/A Signal To Noise Ratio (Moving Coil) N/A Signal To Noise Ratio (Moving Magnet) 82dB Signal To Noise Ratio (High Level) 93dB Signal To Noise Ratio (Power Amp input) N/A Input Impedance (Balanced / Unbalanced) 20K/20K Damping Factor 8 Ohms: >2004 Ohms: >100 Maximum Output (Balanced / Unbalanced) 8V Unbalanced Connectivity Balanced Input 2 Unbalanced Input 3 Phono Input Moving Coil 0 Phono Input Moving Magnet 1 (adjustable loading) Upgradeable Digital Audio Module No Digital Coaxial Input 0 Digital Optical Input 0 Digital MCT (DIN) Input 0 Digital USB Input 0 Balanced Variable Output 0 Unbalanced Fixed Output 0 Unbalanced Variable Output 1 Headphone Output 1/4" High Drive with Headphone Crossfeed Director (HXD®) Subwoofer Output 2 AM/FM Tuner option No Home Theater PassThru Yes Unbalanced Analog Connector Type Standard Speaker Binding Post Type Standard Service Port 1 Digital Audio Specifications Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) Type N/A Digital Coaxial Input Sample Rate N/A Digital Optical Input Sample Rate N/A Digital MCT (DIN) Input Sample Rate N/A Digital USB Input Sample Rate N/A Control Tone Controls 5-Band Tone Bypass and Input Assign Yes RS232 Control Input Yes Power Control Output 1 Rear Panel Data Port 2 Rear Panel IR Sensor Input Yes Input Level Match Yes General Specifications Vacuum Tube or Solid State Preamplifier: Vacuum TubePower Amplifier: Solid State Output Type Direct Coupled Output Meters Yes Dual Layer Chassis Yes Chassis Finish Polished stainless steel McIntosh Monogrammed Heatsinks™ Yes Power Requirement 120V 50/60Hz, 6.0A Standby Power Requirement
