McIntosh MCD350 SACD/CD Player
Purity
The McIntosh MCD350 SACD/CD Player delivers a remarkably pure listening experience from your cherished SACD and CD collections. It utilises a high-performance 32-bit/192kHz Digital-to-Analogue Converter to ensure every musical detail remains intact. Consequently, the audio output possesses a lifelike quality that rivals many modern high-resolution streaming services. This player serves as an ideal foundation for any serious two-channel hi-fi system.
Precision
Engineering excellence defines the internal transport mechanism of this premium unit. The rigid aluminium die-cast tray handles discs with absolute stability during operation. Furthermore, the player employs a 2x read speed system to capture data more accurately. This method allows the unit to store information in a buffer memory for superior error correction. Thus, your music flows without interruption or digital artefacts.
Optics
A sophisticated twin laser optical pickup sits at the heart of the playback system. This design uses a single objective lens with two distinct laser units for different wavelengths. Each laser is specifically optimised for either SACD or CD playback to maximise data retrieval. Because of this dedicated approach, the player extracts the maximum amount of musical information from every layer. You will hear depth and texture previously hidden in your recordings.
Connectivity
Flexible output options allow for seamless integration into any high-end audio setup. You can choose between balanced XLR or unbalanced RCA fixed analogue outputs for your amplifier. Additionally, gold-plated connectors ensure superior corrosion resistance and signal integrity over time. If you prefer using an external DAC, the unit provides coaxial and optical digital outputs for CD playback. These robust connections maintain the high standards expected from such a prestigious brand.
Aesthetic
The striking design features the iconic black glass front panel that enthusiasts immediately recognise. Illuminated logos and green-lit functional text create a timeless appearance in your equipment rack. Moreover, the polished stainless steel chassis provides a sturdy and beautiful foundation for the internal components. This unit does not just sound magnificent; it makes a bold statement in any room. It perfectly captures the legendary heritage of handcrafted American audio engineering.
