PERFORMANCE

'- PERFORMANCE %

McIntosh audio power ratings are in ac~
cordance with the Federal Trade Commis-
sion Regulation of November A, 197A con-
cerning power output clains for ampli-
fiers used in home entertainment pro»
ducts.

POWER OUTPUT

STEREO: 120 watts minimum
sine wave continuous aver-
age power output, per chan-
nel, both channels operating
into 2 ohms, A ohms, 8 ohms,
or 16 ohms load impedance,
which is:

15.5 volts RMS across 2 ohms
21.9 volts RMS across 4 ohms
31.0 volts RMS across 8 ohms
43.8 volts RMS across 16 ohms

MONO: 240 watts minimum sine
wave continuous average pow-
er output into 1 ohm, 2 ohms,
A ohms, or 8 ohms load im-
pedance, which is:

15.5 volts RMS across 1 ohm
21.9 volts RMS across 2 ohms
31.0 volts RMS across 4 ohms
43.8 volts RMS across 8 ohms

OUTPUT LOAD IMPEDANCE

STEREO: 2 ohms, 4 ohms, 8
ohms, and 16 ohms; separate
terminals are provided for
each output.

MONO: 1 ohm, 2 ohms, A ohms,
and 8 ohms; obtained by conn-
ecting together appropriate
terminals of both channels.

ic distortion at any power
level from 150 milliwatts to
120 watts per channel from
20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, both
channels operating

LIMITS 8 RATINGS

MONO: 0.1% maximum harmonic
distortion at any power lev-
el from 150 milliwatts to
2A0 watts from 20 Hz to
20,000 Hz

INTERMODULATION DISTORTION

STEREO: 0.1, maximum it instantaneous
peak power output is 2A0 watts or less
per channel with both channels opera-

ting for any conbination of frequen-
cies, 20 H/ to 20,000 Hz

MONO: 0.1 maximum ii instantaneous
peak power output is 580 watts or less

for any combination of frequencies.
