McIntosh Introduces MSA5500 Streaming Integrated Amplifier

A brand mainly associated with classic, high-end hifi, McIntosh Laboratory just announced a new streaming and amplifier all-in-one setup, crafted for modern living. Under the unmistakably McIntosh design with the iconic blue Watt Meters, the compact MSA5500 Streaming Integrated Amplifier’s combines endless capabilities and connectivity such as AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Chromecast, Spotify Connect and more, as well as physical inputs for a turntable and HDMI (ARC). Just add the right speakers.

The MA252 Integrated Amplifier is the first ever hybrid integrated amplifier design from McIntosh. Unveiled early November 2017, the MA252 is now shipping. The amp brings the benefits of vacuum tube (valve) to its preamp stage, with solid-state technology on the output stage, all with a visually stunning, integrated package, taking retro design cues from the legendary McIntosh MC275 Vacuum Tube Amplifier.
