McIntosh MCD85 2-Channel SACD/CD Player
£6,990.00
Immerse yourself in your music with the MCD85 SACD/CD Player. The MCD85 with its open chassis design is not only a serious piece of music hardware, but it shows that you are serious about your love of music. With the great success of our similarly retro styled MC275 and MC1502 Vacuum Tube Amplifiers, MA252 and MA352 Integrated Amplifiers, and the warm reception of the recently introduced MC830 Solid State Amplifier and C8 Vacuum Tube Preamplifier that also have retro touches, it’s clear that many people want their home stereo system not to blend in, but instead to be distinctive looking. To be put on display. To be a conversation starter. To make the statement that “A Serious Music Lover Lives Here.” The MCD85 does all that. And more.
Description
The McIntosh MT-10 marries classic McIntosh glass front panel cosmetics with serious
mechanics to create a unique, ready-to-play LP solution. With tracking force, anti-skate
and cartridge position preset at the factory the McIntosh MT-10 delivers high performance
LP playback with minimal set up.
The turntable base is comprised of a damped sandwich of stainless steel and acrylic plate;
a unique combination of dissimilar materials that provides a resonance-free foundation
for the tonearm. A massive, 12 pound, 2 ½” thick acrylic platter spins on a cushion of air,
elevated by a custom magnetic bearing.
A regulated power supply drives a super-quiet, brushless, Swiss DC motor. Unmatched
accuracy is derived from a new electronic speed control that references 1,595 strobe
markings per revolution of the platter. Speed adjustments of 331/3, 45, or 78 RPM are
made from the front panel and are registered on a blue, backlit McIntosh meter.
A custom tonearm features a rigid, dural-aluminium arm-tube gimbaled in two sapphire
(horizontal) and two ceramic (vertical) bearings for the least possible friction. A .5mV
moving coil cartridge is included, and features an ebony body with an elliptical stylus.
