McIntosh To Mark Its 60th Anniversary at CES 2009

Company to Showcase Its Legendary Audio Pedigree, Including Limited Edition Amplifier and Preamplifier at CES

McIntosh Laboratory will mark its 60th anniversary at CES 2009, officially debuting two highly anticipated limited-edition reissues of legendary components, the MC75 monoblock tube amplifier and C22 preamplifier. These products, along with several other ultimate-quality components that reflect McIntosh’s unparalleled home entertainment pedigree, will be showcased at the company’s CES Suite #2828 at the Las Vegas Hilton.

McIntosh President Charlie Randall noted: “McIntosh has a great deal to be proud of as we look back on our 60 years in home entertainment. The introduction of our two new audiophile classic reissues, for example, reflects one of the key attributes that sets our products apart from those all other manufacturers — namely, that they are virtually timeless in their performance capabilities, style and reliability — in fact, many of our customers the world over often view their McIntosh products as investments worthy of being passed down through generations. And just as we pause at CES to reflect back upon our legendary roots, McIntosh is also looking to the future with a host of ultimate-quality analog and digital components that will define the next 60 years of home entertainment.”

Attention Audiophiles: Limited-Edition Classic McIntosh “Reissues”
McIntosh will showcase a special, limited-edition amplifier system scheduled for release in the spring of 2009. The system, designed to appeal to loyal McIntosh collectors and audiophile purists around the world, features two MC75 monoblock tube amplifiers (modeled after the original 1961 version), in combination with a C22 preamplifier (originally introduced in 1962). The Classic Reissue components will be packaged together and sold as a set, with only 60 sets to be available in each of McIntosh’s sales regions around the world.

Company’s First Integrated Audio System
At CES, McIntosh will also display its first-ever tabletop integrated 2-channel audio system, the compact “Executive” Model MXA60. Scheduled for availability in the third quarter of 2009, the ultimate-quality tabletop system features a high-performance 75-watt-per-channel amplifier, state-of-the-art CD/SACD/MP3 player, vacuum tube preamplifier, as well as an AM/FM/RDBS Tuner and loudspeaker system with two-way bass reflex.
