Technical Description
not come easily. Many months of design, testing and mea- suring were required. Extensive controlled listening tests, the ultimate form of measuring, were made before the final design was accepted.
Design Philosophy
The design philosophy incorporated in the MC602 in- volved several different techniques, all based on sound sci- entific logic. Every stage of voltage or current amplifica-
tion must be as linear as possible prior to the use of nega- tive feedback. McIntosh engineers know how to properly design negative feedback circuits so they contribute to the extremely low distortion performance expected from a McIntosh amplifier. The typical McIntosh owner would never accept the approximately 100 times higher distortion of many
