Lyd & Bilde on the McIntosh MC611: "a rare combination of effortless power and sophistication"

The MC611, a 600 Watt monoblock amplifier, has received a Highly Recommended 6-star review from Norway based Lyd & Bilde.

They say the MC611 has "a rare combination of effortless power and sophistication" that allows it to easily "drive almost any type of speaker." They do "a phenomenal job of bringing out the atmosphere in a recording" including the "depths in the lowest tones of a concert piano."

"With total control of the large dynamic range of an orchestra," the amplifier brings the strings to life and gives wings to the vocals. Reviewer Lasse Svendsen says "The MC611 makes no mistakes. I could play it extremely loud without feeling uncomfortable."
