The New McIntosh 9500 and 8950 versions Offer Additional Performance Benefits for our award winning 9000 and 8900
McIntosh is proud to unveil the new MA9500 and MA8950 Integrated Amplifiers, which replace the award-winning MA9000 and MA8900 and add performance enhancements to these already outstanding products.
Highlights of the MA9500 and MA8950:
- They come standard with our advanced DA2 Digital Audio Module with an HDMI input and support for DSD512
- Filter capacity has been doubled which has produced significant increase in dynamic headroom of over 50%
- Increased filter capacity also helps deliver even better bass performance
- Upgraded power supply components further reduce noise emissions while also adding more robustness under the most demanding conditions.
Music simply comes to life with the MA9500 through its 300 Watts per channel of clean, effortless power. It features 10 analog inputs: 2 balanced, 6 unbalanced, plus 1 Moving Coil and 1 Moving Magnet phono input that both offer adjustable loading. It also includes a balanced and unbalanced output that can send the audio signal to another power amplifier. McIntosh’s innovative Solid Cinch™ speaker binding posts will easily but securely attach the speaker cables to prevent them from coming loose; the binding posts are gold-plated to prevent corrosion and ensure a quality signal is sent to the speakers. The MA9500 includes a discrete, eight-band tone control that allows for advanced manual analog adjustment of ±12dB in 2dB increments at frequencies of 25Hz, 50Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz, 400Hz, 1kHz, 2.5kHz, and 10kHz.
