Bring McIntosh valve amplification to your headphone system with the MHA200. Its compact chassis houses the company's Unity Coupled Circuit output transformers, with balanced connectivity and load-matching options for a considered listening setup.
Key Features
- Dual triode tubes – a pair of 12AT7 tubes amplify the signal while a pair of 12BH7A tubes supply the power to drive your headphones with low distortion.
- Unity Coupled Circuit transformers – the output design McIntosh was founded on in 1949, still used in its full-size tube amplifiers.
- Three headphone output options – dual 3-pin XLR for left and right, a 4-pin XLR for balanced stereo, and a 1/4-inch jack.
- Balanced inputs – connect a source with balanced outputs for a fully balanced chain.
- Iconic McIntosh styling – the look of the brand's larger tube amps in a desktop-friendly size.
Good to Know
The MHA200 is a headphone amplifier only, so pair it with a DAC or analog source. If your headphones have a balanced cable, the XLR outputs let you use it without adapters.
