About the MA8950
The McIntosh MA8950 Integrated Amplifier offers 200 watts per channel and combines McIntosh's amplification expertise and preamplifier technologies into one comprehensive stereo sound system component. It replaces the award-winning MA8900 and adds significant performance enhancements including a 55% increase in dynamic headroom (from 2.0dB to 3.1dB) for superior reproduction of musical peaks with less distortion and improved bass control. The amplifier features upgraded power supply components for lower noise emission and reliability, powerful control microprocessors for smooth system operation, and state-of-the-art audio-grade circuit components. Key protective technologies include Power Guard® which monitors input and output signals to prevent distortion and clipping, and Sentry Monitor™ fuse-less short-circuit protection. The unit includes a discrete five-band tone control for manual analog adjustment at 30Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 2kHz, and 10kHz frequencies, gold-plated speaker binding posts, and power control outputs for connected McIntosh components. The MA8950 is Roon Tested certified.
