Now you can take advantage of traditional McIntosh
standards of excellence in the MAC7200 Receiver.
The flexible Preamplifier section provides connec-
tions for various input sources and may also be used to
drive an external Power Amplifier(s).
The AM/FM Tuner section provides superb
reception from Radio Stations. It uses the latest in
technology for the best sound quality, along with the
convenient operation.
The Power Amplifier section of the MAC7200,
with a power output of 200 watts per channel, will
drive a pair of quality Loudspeakers to a high level of
performance.
The MAC7200 reproduction is sonically transpar-
ent and absolutely accurate. The McIntosh Sound is
“The Sound of the Music Itself.
Introduction
Performance Features
• Power Output with Patented Autoformer
The MAC7200 consists of a 200 watts per channel
Power Amplifier with less than 0.005% distortion.
The McIntosh designed and manufactured Autoformer
allows connection of 2, 4 or 8 ohm Loudspeakers. The
Power Amplifier uses ThermalTrak
1
Output Transis-
tors 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 MAC7200 will have a long and

trouble free operating life. Built-in Thermal Protection
Circuits guard against overheating.
• Power Meters
The Illuminated Power Output Meters are peak re-
sponding, and indicate the power output of the ampli-
fier.
• McIntosh Custom Binding Posts
McIntosh Patented gold plated Power Amplifier Out-
put 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.
• Electronic Switching and Balanced Connections
The Preamplifier uses Logic Circuits Controlled
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 Digital Inputs decode PCM and DSD Signals
from external sources. Coaxial and Optical Inputs
process Digital Signals up to 192kHz with 24-Bit
resolution. The Digital MCT Input Circuitry directly
decodes SACD/CD signals from an external Trans-
port component. The USB Input for streaming audio
processes Digital Signals up to 384kHz with 32-Bit
resolution, decodes up to DSD256 Digital Signals and
DXD 24-Bit with a sampling rate up to 384kHz.
• Moving Coil and Moving Magnet Phono Inputs
The MAC7200 has two precision Phono Preamplifier
Circuits for Moving Coil and Moving Magnet Phono
Cartridges. Both circuits use the latest designs to
provide the lowest possible noise, distortion and flat

frequency response. The MC Phono Cartridge Input
has selectable loading.
• Tone Controls
The Bass and Treble Trim Controls provide up to
12dB of boost or cut. The MAC7200 remembers the
Bass and Treble Setting for each input.
• Multifunction Display
The Front Panel Display indicates source selection,
volume levels and setup functions. For Tuner op-
eration it also indicates Station Frequency, Signal
Strength, Stored Station Presets and Tuner Setup
Functions.
• Special FM RF Circuitry
The Tuner Module RF Circuitry receives strong local
FM Station Signals without distortion and receives
even the weakest of FM Signals with low noise.
• High Dynamic Range IF FM Circuitry
The all important IF circuitry in the Tuner Module
provides dynamic bandwidth control optimizing
performance at all times with varying reception condi-
tions.
• Information Service
The Front Panel Display can display various text
information from the Broadcast Station
