The MA9000 pushes 300 watts per channel and has “enough power to properly drive virtually all loudspeakers,” according to McIntosh. Additionally, the MA9000 has a 32-bit built-in DAC, an integrated headphone amp and ten analog connections (so you’ll be able to integrate it with the system you already have). It supports high-resolution DSD256 and DXD 384kHz files. If you’re in the market for an integrated amp to complete your home hi-fi system, or you just want to upgrade, the MA9000 is available to order now for $10,500 and will ship later in July. — Tucker Bowe, Associate Staff Writer
