Separate MC and MM inputs each provide six loading settings, allowing the MP100 to be matched to a wide range of cartridges without requiring external loading plugs or adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts analog output stage provides both balanced and unbalanced fixed outputs for connection to a preamplifier, integrated amplifier, or other line-level component. A Mono switch provides correct playback of mono records while helping reduce unwanted noise, and the digital circuitry can be completely disabled when the MP100 is used as a purely analog phonostage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAdjustable Cartridge Loading\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Moving Coil input provides selectable resistance settings of 25, 50, 100, 200, 400, and 1,000 ohms, while the Moving Magnet input offers six selectable capacitance settings from 50 to 400 pF. MC and MM gain are fixed at 60 dB and 40 dB respectively, with an RIAA equalization curve applied to both inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith balanced output capability up to 16 V RMS and unbalanced output capability up to 8 V RMS, the MP100 can integrate into systems ranging from compact vinyl setups to full-size McIntosh installations. Power Control input and output connections also allow compatible McIntosh components to switch on and off together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDigital Recording From Vinyl\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to its analog outputs, the MP100 includes coaxial, optical, and USB digital outputs operating at 24-bit\/96 kHz. The USB connection allows records to be digitized directly to a computer using compatible recording software, while a clipping indicator helps identify excessive recording levels so the digital output can be adjusted before distortion occurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MP100 uses McIntosh’s narrow 11.5\" chassis format, making it compact enough for smaller systems while retaining the company’s familiar black-glass front panel, illuminated logo, and metal construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaximum Output Voltage (Balanced \/ Unbalanced):\u003c\/b\u003e 16 V RMS \/ 8 V RMS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eInput Impedance (MC):\u003c\/b\u003e 25, 50, 100, 200, 400, or 1,000 ohms; 470 pF\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eInput Impedance (MM):\u003c\/b\u003e 47 kohms; 50, 100, 150, 200, 300, or 400 pF\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVoltage Gain (MC, MM):\u003c\/b\u003e 60 dB, 40 dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio (MC, MM):\u003c\/b\u003e 78 dB, 80 dB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaximum Input Signal (MC, MM):\u003c\/b\u003e 8 mV, 80 mV\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhono Sensitivity (MC, MM):\u003c\/b\u003e 1 mV, 10 mV\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRated Output (Balanced \/ Unbalanced):\u003c\/b\u003e 2 V \/ 1 V\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Impedance (Balanced \/ Unbalanced):\u003c\/b\u003e 200 ohms \/ 100 ohms\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhono Equalization:\u003c\/b\u003e RIAA\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhono Inputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 Moving Coil (adjustable); 1 Moving Magnet (adjustable)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBalanced Fixed Outputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 stereo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUnbalanced Fixed Outputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 stereo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDigital Outputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 coaxial, 1 optical, 1 USB audio\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDigital Output Sample Rate:\u003c\/b\u003e PCM up to 24-bit\/96 kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUnbalanced Analog Connector Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Standard\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower Control Inputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower Control Outputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChassis:\u003c\/b\u003e Single\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eType:\u003c\/b\u003e Solid state\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower Consumption:\u003c\/b\u003e 8 W\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions (H × W × D):\u003c\/b\u003e 3.78125\" × 11.5\" × 16.75\" (96 × 292 × 425 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.6 lb.
