What are your thoughts on using the MC162 to power surround speakers in a McIntosh system?

I have owned a 2125, 7100, 7200, 122, 202, 162, 452, and 152. The 152 is the best I’ve had by far, better than the 452 even. They really lucked out with its circuit. The 162 is good for the money but a bit grainy and with a constricted soundstage compared to the newer models. I suggest a 152 if you don’t need ridiculous amounts of power. |
I know that I am late to the party. This is my first McIntosh product. Driving it with a Schiit Freya+ w/NOS tubes. As this amp breaks in…it is blowing my mind. McIntosh is very conservative on the power output ratings. Reliable 3rd-party measurements put it at 238-258 wpc@8 ohms. Listening is becoming a joy again! 😀 |
