The McIntosh MC60 is a monaural vacuum tube power amplifier produced from 1955 to 1961, delivering 60 watts of output power. It uses a push-pull output stage with a pair of KT88 or 6550 output tubes and McIntosh's patented Unity Coupled Circuit output transformer, which provides wide bandwidth, low distortion, and stable operation into speaker loads of 4, 8, or 16 ohms. The MC60 features a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, total harmonic distortion below 0.5%, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 90 dB. Its construction quality, low distortion, and musical character have made it a sought-after collector's piece among vintage audio enthusiasts.
