McIntosh C22, 2-channel tube preamplifier Mk V

The McIntosh C22 Mk V combines an analog tube circuit with a classic glass and aluminum front panel. Five 12AX7A tubes and one 12AT7 make up the tube complement. The unit handles source selection, volume control, and preamplification within a system with a separate power amplifier.

Separate MM and MC phono inputs allow the direct connection of different cartridge systems. Adjustable load settings facilitate adjustment to the cartridge in use. Balanced and unbalanced high-level inputs complete the analog features.

Bass and treble controls allow for sound adjustment and can be bypassed. Two output sections with XLR and RCA connections expand the signal distribution options. A headphone connection with HXD enables personal listening.
