Tube Preamplifier
The C2300 tube preamplifier delivers a new level of performance and value. Potent
engineering enhancements combine with smart, user-programmable features to deliver
a truly extraordinary audio preamplifier.
The two phono preamplifiers, moving coil and moving magnet, are both 12AX7A tube
based. Programmable Load and Resistance is selectable by remote control so the adjust-
ments can be made from the listening position.
Bass and Treble controls are also adjustable by remote control. Individual tone settings
and mono/stereo may be stored in memory for each of the 8 inputs. Tone Bypass may also
be assigned which completely removes the tone controls from any designated input.
The C2300 is both beautiful to look at as well as listen to. The custom top cover features
a silk-screened glass window which reveals a unique, slant-mount tube array. With its
classic McIntosh glass faceplate, twin blue output meters and ergonomically pleasing
rotary controls, the C2300 is poised to serve as the centerpiece of any fine music system.
