Now you can take advantage of traditional McIntosh
standards of excellence in the MA5200 Integrated
Amplifier. The Power Amplifier section of the
MA5200, with a power output of 100 watts per chan-
nel, will drive a pair of quality Loudspeakers to a high
level of performance.
The flexible Preamplifier section provides connec-
tions for various input sources and may also be used to
drive an external Power Amplifier(s).
The MA5200 reproduction is sonically transparent
and absolutely accurate. The McIntosh Sound is “The
Sound of the Music Itself.
Introduction
Performance Features
• Power Output
The MA5200 consists of a 100 watts per channel ste-
reo Power Amplifier with less than 0.005% distortion.
The McIntosh MA5200 is designed for connection of
a single 8 ohm Loudspeaker per channel. The Power
Amplifier uses ThermalTrak
1
Output Transistors for
lower distortion and cool operation.
• Power Guard
The patented McIntosh Power Guard circuit prevents
amplifier clipping and protects your valuable Loud-
speakers.
• Sentry Monitor and Thermal Protection
McIntosh Sentry Monitor power output stage protec-
tion circuits ensure the MA5200 will have a long and
trouble free operating life. Built-in Thermal Protection
Circuits guard against overheating.

• Electronic Switching and Balanced Connections
The Preamplifier uses Logic Circuits controlling
Electromagnetic Switches on all inputs and operating
functions for reliable, noiseless, distortion free switch-
ing. There is a Balanced Input for connection of a
source component.
• Digital Audio Inputs
The MA5200 has Coaxial, Optical and USB Digi-
tal Inputs to decode PCM Signals from an external
source. The MA5200 Up Samples the Digital Signal
to 192kHz with 32Bit resolution before the Digital to
Analog process begins.
• Multifunction Fluorescent Display
The Front Panel Display indicates source selection,
volume levels and setup functions.
• Illuminated Power Meters
The Illuminated Power Output Watt Meters on the
MA5200 are peak responding, and indicate the power
output of the amplifier.
• PassThru Mode
The Automatic PassThru Mode allows the MA5200
to become part of a Multichannel Sound System for
DVD-Audio, SACD and Home Theater Movies.
• Power Control and Remote Control
The Power Control Output connection provides conve-
nient Turn-On/Off of McIntosh Source Components.
The Data Ports together with the supplied Remote
Control provide control of McIntosh Source Compo-
nents connected to the MA5200.
• Special Power Supply
The large Power Transformer, multiple filter capaci-
tors with 60 Joules of Energy Storage and regulated
Power Supply ensures stable noise free operation even
though the power line varies.
• McIntosh Custom Binding Posts
McIntosh Patented gold plated output terminals deliver
high current output. They accept large diameter wire
and spade lugs. Banana plugs may also be used only in
the United States and Canada.
• Fiber Optic Solid State Front Panel Illumination
The even Illumination of the Front Panel is accom-
plished by the combination of custom designed Fiber
Optic Light Diffusers and extra long life Light Emit-
ting Diodes (LEDs). The glass Front Panel ensures the
pristine beauty of the MA5200 will be retained for
many years.
