🎵 Sound

The MX113 delivers the classic McIntosh sound – smooth, musical, and easy to listen to for long sessions. FM broadcasts have that slightly warm, rich character vintage Mac is known for, and the preamp section does a nice job of adding body and weight without sounding dull.

Paired with a good power amp and speakers, this makes a fantastic vintage two-channel front end for vinyl, tuner, and line-level sources.
