(40.87kg) net 121lbs. (54.9kg) boxed ADDITIONAL SPECIFICATION Designed by McIntosh co-founder Sidney A. Corderman and the McIntosh Engineering Staff Stereo: 100 watts per channel (8/4/2 Ohm) Mono parallel: 200 watts per channel (4/2/1 Ohms) Mono bridged: 200 watts per channel (16/8/4 Ohms) Air-pipe cooling at base for output tubes Gold-plated input jacks Gold-plated 200A multi-way output binding posts CUSTOM OUTPUT TRANSFORMER Unique McIntosh-wound transformer delivers the full rated amplifier output with the least possible distortion and maximum bandwidth into loudspeaker impedances of 2, 4, or 8 Ohms; you get all the power you paid for and the freedom to choose any loudspeaker. WATTMETER Swift, accurate response reveals program peaks so staying within the power limits of your loudspeakers is easy. BALANCED INPUTS Allows the use balanced cables for 40dB better rejection of induced noise. MONO MODES Mono-Bridge and Mono-Parallel modes enable the MC2102 to deliver a full 200 watts as a mono amplifier into 1,2,4,8 or 16 Ohm loads.
