TMR Safe Pack & Ship Guarantee

Our Safe Pack and Ship Guarantee means we guarantee its safe arrival. Items are carefully double-boxed or custom foam-molded. For larger pieces, we palletize to ensure secure, upright delivery. In rare cases of loss or damage, we fully protect your purchase.

Shipping Cost

Shipping within the Continental USA is $499.00—this includes securing to a pallet with adequate protection and shipping via FedEx Freight to a residential address anywhere in the Continental USA. This rate can be reduced by $60 if a commercial delivery address is available or if the item can be picked up at the nearest FedEx Freight depot. FedEx Freight charges a residential delivery fee otherwise, which is included in our flat rate charge.

We DO NOT offer international shipping.

Product Highlights

McIntosh MC501: 500W into 8, 4, and 2 ohms. This high-performance solid-state monoblock amplifier is celebrated for its quad-balanced design, ensuring ultra-clean signal delivery. Utilizing signature Autoformers, it provides a consistent 500-watt output regardless of speaker impedance, making it an ideal match for demanding or low-sensitivity loudspeakers. The unit features the iconic McIntosh aesthetic, complete with a black glass front, signature blue wattmeter, and fiber-optic lighting. Integrated Power Guard technology prevents clipping, safeguarding your speakers while maintaining peak performance.

Critics have lauded the MC501 for its "valve-like" midrange and massive, expansive soundstage. Recognized as a Stereophile Product of the Year, this landmark amplifier is widely regarded as a definitive solid-state solution. It offers a sophisticated blend of weight and musicality, serving as a powerful cornerstone for any high-fidelity audio system or dedicated home theater.
