General : The McIntosh MCD600 is the top-of-the-line CD/SACD player from McIntosh.

Technology : The McIntosh MCD600 features a newly designed digital circuit with a high-quality 8-channel Quad Balanced D/A Converter. This means there are 4 DAC channels dedicated to both the left and right audio channels. All CDs and PCM files played on the McIntosh MCD600 are upsampled to 32bit/384kHz. The new CD drawer is made of cast aluminum and moves very smoothly and stably. CDs are read extremely quickly, and the McIntosh MCD600 reads CDs twice as fast as normal, which provides better error correction processing and disc tracking. In addition to CDs and SACDs, the McIntosh MCD600 can also play files from a USB stick. The McIntosh MCD600 accepts virtually all file formats including AAC, AIFF, ALAC, FLAC, MP3, WAV (up to 24bit/192kHz) and even DSD files (up to DSD128). The McIntosh MCD600 also features 2 digital inputs (SPDIF Coax and Toslink/Optical) so you can connect an external source such as a streamer or TV. On the back of the McIntosh MCD600, you'll find 4 sets of analog outputs, both variable and fixed outputs, and both the variable and fixed outputs have an unbalanced RCA output and a balanced XLR output. The variable output allows you to control the volume, which means you can connect the McIntosh MCD600 directly to a power amplifier without an external preamp. There's also a high-quality headphone input so you can connect your headphones directly to the McIntosh MCD600. On the front, you'll find a rotary knob for input selection, a rotary knob for volume adjustment, and the usual Play/Pause, Stop, Open/Close, Back, Next buttons and a Standby button. The USB port for connecting an external USB stick is also on the front for easy access.

Appearance : You can almost always recognize a McIntosh device from a mile away, and so it is with the McIntosh MCD600. The MCD600 features the characteristic black glass panel on the front where the McIntosh logo lights up in green. Below you'll find an LED display showing the track number and progress. The intensity of the LED display can be easily dimmed or brightened. And right at the front you'll find 2 large shiny knobs for volume control and input switching. The McIntosh MCD600 is very solidly built and truly a pleasure to look at. The dimensions are 44.5cm (W) x 15.2cm (H) x 48.3cm (D), and the unit weighs 12.7 kg.

Sound : The McIntosh MCD600 has the typical McIntosh character. This means the MCD600 sounds beautifully full, detailed and rich. The difference from older McIntosh equipment lies more in the detail and tangibility of the soundstage. The MCD600 also sounds more precise and airier than older McIntosh CD players, which sound somewhat darker than the newer generation of McIntosh CD players. The McIntosh MCD600 will never give too much or too little of anything. The sound is very controlled and balanced, and even at higher volumes with heavier music, the McIntosh MCD600 maintains its grip and the sound remains comfortable, so you don't feel rushed to turn down the volume. This means you'll still enjoy listening to the McIntosh MCD600 after hours, days, weeks, months or years. The overall picture just works and doesn't give the feeling that you're really listening to a digital signal; the music is reproduced full of emotion, which creates more emotion and involvement with the music. Although the McIntosh MCD600 sounds refined, it doesn't sound boring or too tame. Because of this very refined character, the McIntosh MCD600 is suitable for virtually any type of music at virtually any volume on virtually any type of speaker. It's also worth mentioning the excellent service that McIntosh offers on its equipment, so you don't need to worry about the future, as parts are well-stocked and can be produced in the future, and McIntosh never leaves its customers out in the cold, as it should be.

This McIntosh MCD600 is young used equipment, rarely used and in absolutely like-new condition. All accessories and the complete original packaging are also included.
