McIntosh MA252 Hybrid Integrated Amplifier

Codell Audio is pleased to offer this pre-owned McIntosh MA252 Hybrid Integrated Amplifier, combining the musical character of a tube preamplifier with the power, control and reliability of a solid-state output stage.

The MA252 delivers 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 160 watts per channel into 4 ohms, making it a highly capable and versatile integrated amplifier for a wide range of loudspeakers. Its hybrid design offers the dimensionality and harmonic character associated with tubes while maintaining the authority and bass control of a solid-state power section.

The MA252 is also exceptionally well equipped, with a built-in Moving Magnet phono stage, balanced and unbalanced inputs, subwoofer output, and McIntosh's High Drive headphone amplifier. Its iconic McIntosh styling, exposed tubes and polished stainless-steel chassis complete the package.

Condition: Pre-owned — Very Good to Excellent

The amplifier is in very good to excellent overall condition. There are some light scuffs on the polished chrome/stainless-steel surfaces; these appear a llittle more pronounced in the photographs than they do in person.
