McIntosh announced the C12000 Preamplifier, a two-chassis design that isolates the audio section from the control and power sections, resulting in the purest sound reproduction possible.

The C12000 is comprised of the C12000 Controller Module and the C12000 Preamplifier Module. All power control, data ports and external control connections are located within the C12000 Controller, where dual isolated power supplies drive the left and right channels, while a dual microprocessor gives robustness to the control system. The C12000 Preamplifier Module houses the audio connections and circuitry — inside, the left and right channels are electrically and mechanically isolated to allow true dual mono operation, resulting in the ultimate stereo separation and sonic purity. The controller and preamplifier units are connected via high-performance umbilical cables that are specifically designed to prevent outside noise from leaking into the audio signal.

C12000 PREAMPLIFIER FEATURES INCLUDE:

The C12000 can be paired with a variety of amplifiers, speakers, room correction devices, CD players, turntables, tuners and other source components to complete a home audio system. It can be integrated within existing multichannel home theater system via the Home Theater Pass Through feature. The C12000 employs fully balanced circuitry to match the level of performance achieved in any of McIntosh’s Quad Balanced amplifiers.

The C12000 is a visual statement in addition to its audio prowess, complete with McIntosh’s classic features including black glass front panels, iconic blue meters, and custom machined-brushed aluminum handles. Both units feature a chassis made of stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish, plus hairline brushed black titanium stainless steel, offering an enhanced degree of richness and refinement.
