PERFORMANCE LIMITS
Performance limits are the maximum
deviation from perfection permitted for a
Mclntosh instrument. We promise you that
when you purchase a new MC7100 from a
Mclntosh Franchised Dealer, it will be
capable of performance at or better than
these limits.
STEREO POWER OUTPUT
150 watts into 4 ohm loads or 100 watts
into 8 ohm loads minimum sine wave con-
tinuous average power output per channel,
both channels operating.
The output RMS voltage is:
28.3V across 8 ohms
24.5V across 4 ohms
MONOPHONIC (BRIDGED)
300 watts into an 8 ohm load minimum
sine wave continuous average power output.
The output RMS voltage is: 49 volts across
8 ohms.
