McIntosh C45 Brochure

Promotional Highlights

The C45 Audio Control Center was designed for
the music lover. Ultra-short signal paths in con-
junction with state-of-the-art silent electro-
magnetic switching has virtually eliminated
preamp noise. The C45 also includes a high
performance phono input for your turntable.
Dual Six-channel inputs allow control of the latest
multi-channel audio formats when used with
source components that provide the decoding.
These multi-channel formants include DVD-
Audio, SACD, Dolby Digital and DTS
Audio/Video.

Performance Features:

Two 6-Channel Inputs: Provides multi-channel audio
control for source units, such as DVD players, with
built-in decoders. Each 6-channel input is assignable to
any of the eight source inputs.
2-Stage Electronic Volume Control: Volume for each
of the six channels is controlled by an individual 2-
stage circuit to maximize dynamic range. The precision
optical encoder uses pulses of light to ensure accuracy
and to eliminate mechanical wear.
Information Display: The large, easy to read display
shows input and volume. Input names can be chosen
from 14 available titles.
