One unit powers one loudspeaker, so two MC901 amplifiers are required for a stereo pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the MC901 a 900-watt amplifier?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot in the conventional sense. It contains a 300-watt tube amplifier and a separate 600-watt solid state amplifier. The two outputs feed different sections of a bi-amp-capable loudspeaker and are not combined into one full-range output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan the MC901 be used with any speaker?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The loudspeaker must provide separate, electrically isolated terminals for its low-frequency and mid\/high-frequency sections. Loudspeaker crossover requirements and the recommended crossover point should be confirmed before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the MC901 require an external crossover?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsually not.

It is an excellent choice for distributed audio, Atmos height channels and secondary home-theater speakers. For the main channels of a demanding theater, a higher-powered amplifier such as the MC257 may provide greater output and traditional speaker connections. Many systems use the two types together: a larger amplifier for the front and primary surround channels, and the MI128 for additional channels or music zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/products\/mht300-home-theater-receiver\"\u003eMcIntosh MHT300 Home Theater Receiver\u003c\/a\u003e can also be expanded with external amplification when a system requires additional channels beyond its internal amplifier section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMcIntosh MI128 Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAmplifier Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8-channel digital Class D power amplifier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Output per Channel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120 watts into 8 ohms; 150 watts into 4 ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNumber of Channels\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTotal Harmonic Distortion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.05%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e95dB below rated output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDynamic Headroom\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.1dB at 8 ohms; 3.3dB at 4 ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDamping Factor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGreater than 65 at 8 ohms; greater than 32 at 4 ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRated Power Band\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20Hz to 20kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+0\/-0.5dB from 20Hz to 20kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCircuit Configuration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClosed-loop digital switching\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOutput Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDirect coupled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAnalog Inputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndividual unbalanced RCA inputs with BUS input and output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDigital Inputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2, selectable coaxial or optical\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpeaker Connections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-pole Phoenix-style push-in terminals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChannel Controls\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndividual volume controls; local\/BUS and stereo\/mono selection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Control\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12-volt trigger and automatic signal sensing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCooling\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFanless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRack Mounting\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2U with removable rack ears\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17-1\/2 inches W without ears \/ 19 inches W with ears x 4-5\/16 inches H x 21 inches D\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUnit Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38.4 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-year limited warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow many rooms can the McIntosh MI128 power?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe eight channels can be arranged as four stereo pairs, making the MI128 suitable for powering up to four conventional stereo zones.
