"The McIntosh MC252 is a 250-watt per channel stereo power amplifier that combines effortless power delivery with legendary McIntosh reliability. Its shallow chassis makes installation in standard racks or shelving simple, while proprietary Output Autoformers ensure full power is delivered cleanly to 2, 4, or 8-ohm speakers. With the ability to bridge channels for 500 watts of mono output, it handles even demanding loudspeaker loads with ease, maintaining a natural, non-fatiguing sound signature.

Equipped with Power Guard® circuitry, the MC252 prevents clipping dynamically for smooth, distortion-free performance, while its ultra-low 0.005% THD preserves clarity across the spectrum. Reviewers praise its warm, controlled lows, airy highs, and effortless musical flow, all showcased through McIntosh’s iconic blue wattmeters. Built heavy and solid, the MC252 combines aesthetic elegance with robust engineering, making it a standout choice for high-performance home audio systems."
