Description

Ooberpad announces the availability of the feature-packed McIntosh C2700 2-Channel Vacuum Tube Preamplifier. Following in a long line of revered McIntosh vacuum tube preamplifiers is the C2700 Tube Preamplifier. Leveraging the well-established vacuum tube topology, the C2700 also comes featured with the cutting-edge DA2 Digital Audio Module technology to combine cutting edge digital music capabilities with time tested vacuum tube performance. A credible successor to McIntosh's popular DA1 Digital Audio Module, the DA2 features a wide set of capabilities. The DA2 offers 7 digital inputs including all the same connections found on the DA1 (2 coaxial, 2 optical, 1 USB and 1 MCT) plus a new audio-only HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC)1 connection. TVs with a compatible HDMI (ARC) output can be connected to the C2700 to enjoy your TV’s sound through your home audio system. Popular multi-channel audio formats from Dolby® and DTS® are supported and will be accurately converted to 2-channel audio for proper playback. The TV remote can control the power and volume of the C2700 when CEC communication is enabled in both the preamplifier and the TV. Besides these new HDMI (ARC) features found in the DA2, its USB input has increased DSD playback support up to DSD512 as opposed to the DSD256 limit of the DA1.
