About the C20

The McIntosh C20 is a highly regarded vintage preamplifier that offers comprehensive facilities for tape recording, playback, dubbing, and monitoring. It includes features such as separate phono inputs for different cartridges, treble and bass adjustments for both phono and line inputs, and an aural compensation knob that acts as an early loudness filter. The C20 is designed with military-type terminal boards to prevent mechanical strain and facilitate easier servicing. It also includes switched outlets for powering other vintage equipment.
