45 New McIntosh MC601

Installation of McIntosh MC601 in our reference room!

The question has often been raised as to what the real differences are between a stereo MC452 and a pair of Mono MC601s. However, they are both:

-QuadBalanced
-Autoformers
-PowerGuard
-SentryMonitor
-Same design period

At first glance, we can only point out a power difference of 450W vs 600W.

We must remember the practice in High Fidelity which is to always physically separate the amplification channels. We see here that even for reference equipment, this rule is still true!

Once in operation, the MC601 presents us with a “Sound Image” never before defined before at Son Ultime. We have just reached a higher level in this moment!
