Handcrafted at McIntosh’s Binghamton, NY facility, the MCD550 and MA8000 incorporate the precision, craftsmanship and sound quality that McIntosh fans expect with crucial design updates, including an increased power in the feature-rich MA8000 and quad-balanced output for CD/SACD playback in the MCD550.

With the increased popularity of purchasing vinyl records the MA8000 is the perfect addition to McIntosh’s recently released MT5 Precision Turntable. At 300W per channel, the MA8000 can drive virtually any loudspeaker while the USB input decodes digital music at up to 32 bits and 192kHz for high resolution audio playback.

As a tenth generation CD player the MCD550 enhances all disc-based music collections. With new features such as an even more powerful headphone circuit and an auto-correcting loading tray this is sure to be the perfect addition to any McIntosh home setup.
