The McIntosh MC352 is a powerful stereo amplifier delivering 350 watts per channel across different impedance loads (2, 4, or 8 ohms). This amplifier features a double-balanced push-pull design that employs matched amplifiers for superior performance, significantly reducing distortion to an impressive 0.005% at rated power output. Additionally, the MC352 incorporates McIntosh's exclusive output autoformers, allowing it to effectively match the output impedance to various loudspeakers without compromising audio quality. The amplifier supports both unbalanced and balanced inputs and boasts a signal-to-noise ratio of 85dB (unbalanced) and 115dB (balanced), ensuring clear audio reproduction. With a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz, it offers minimal variation (+0 / -0.25dB) across its operational range. Constructed with robust materials, it weighs around 110 lbs (approximately 50 kg), making it a substantial addition to any audio setup. The MC352 also includes power protection features such as Power Guard, which prevents clipping distortion, and Sentry Monitor, which safeguards the amplifier from excessive current. Its design incorporates the iconic McIntosh blue meters, adding a distinctive visual element that appeals to both aesthetics and functionality.
