매킨토시가 쉴새없이 신제품을 내놓는군요. 전략자체가 집중보다는 보다 많이 시장에 퍼뜨리는 쪽으로 방향을 잡은듯합니다.
이번 인티앰프는 모양부터 MC275 계열이듯 All-Analogue Design을 강조하고 있습니다. MC252의 상급 모델답게 힘을 두배로 늘려 200W의 출력을 냅니다.
초단관으로 12AX7A와 12AT7를 사용하는 것, 2개의 밸런스 /3개의 언밸런스 입력, MM/MC지원 등의 지루한 얘기는 그리 별거 아니고 McIntosh Monogrammed Heatsinks등 매킨토시의 다양한 기술이 들어가있단 홍보를 하고 있습니다.
매킨토시의 트레이드 마크인 블루VU와 MC275 디자인을 합쳐 뽑아내는 이 시리즈들은 어떻게든 팔아보겠다는 회사와 직원들의 의지로 보입니다. 이것마저 안 먹히면 더 이상 쓸 패가 없으니까요.
