The MC series amplifiers are a multi-channel amplifier design that will continually produce power in

excess of 125W/250W/550W with 8 ohm loads and 250W/500W/1100W with 4 ohm loads per channel

depending on model. Each channel of the amplifier is powered from individual power supplies. The compact

and effective design is made easier thanks to the help of the switching power supply that powers the bridged

output stage derived from ICEpower™ technology.

In comparison with other products similarly provided by many companies, our product is superior. The

MC series contains an input stage which we designed to act as a buffer between your amplifier and your input

source. Our input stage direct-couples your gear to produce a much higher input impedance which makes the

integration of a preamplifier seamless. The balanced DUAL FET design creates a balanced three-dimensional

sound. Other companies connect the input and output connectors directly to the amplifier module which will not

properly mate with select preamp sources because of the low input impedance, and will cause less than perfect
sound

For simplicity and sleek operation, the front panel only offers a power switch to activate the unit. There is

a ring that will light brightly when the amplifier is operational, and dimly when in standby, via the 12V Trigger.
The anodized solid aluminum front panel, sides and top cover will not be easily damaged from cleaning.

Conventional Glass cleaner will work well, but denatured alcohol should work the best.

When power is applied to the amplifier and the switch is in the on position, the amplifier will turn on.

Leaving your amplifier on all the time will not hurt it, shorten the lifespan, or degrade the future sound. In fact,

you can expect an improvement in sound with the amplifier on all the time. In standby mode, the amplifier only

dissipates about 29W (for the 500 x 7ch models). The MC amplifiers produce noise that is little to none,

internally and to connected gear. Besides music playing, the only real indication that the unit is operational is the

blue ring on the power switch. If your amplifier has more than 4 channels, there will be a slight turn-on delay on

some channels. This is totally normal and designed to reduce the amount of inrush current at one time. You will

also notice that when your amplifier turns off, it will do the same thing, but in reverse order.

CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord or make sure the power switch is in the off position before making any

connections to your amplifier to minimize the risk of electric shock and possible loudspeaker damage. Power

your amplifier after

all final connections have been made.
