About the MCD7000
The McIntosh MCD 7000 is a vintage single-disc CD player manufactured between 1985 and 1988. It was McIntosh's first CD player and features a robust build quality typical of the brand. The player uses dual TDA1540 14-bit digital-to-analog converters and a CDM-1 mechanism. It delivers a frequency response from 2Hz to 20kHz, a dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio of 96dB, channel separation of 94dB, and very low total harmonic distortion of 0.003%. The line output is 2V. Audiophile reviews praise its warm, tube-like sound without the use of tubes, with very good bass extension, detailed mids, and airy highs, making it competitive with many sub- CD players even decades after its release. The unit measures 410 x 138 x 330 mm and weighs 10 kg. It has two sets of output jacks, including fixed output unaffected by the front panel output level control. The MCD 7000 is no longer manufactured and is considered a legacy product.
