MI254

Digital Amplifier

The MI254 4-Channel Digital Amplifier is a versatile multi-channel amplifier ideal for use in distributed audio, home theater or 2-channel stereo playback.

Delivers 250 W into 8 Ω speakers or 300 W into 4 Ω speakers via highly sophisticated closed loop digital switching amplifiers that are paired with extremely robust power supplies to produce performance levels that are rarely achieved in distributed audio.

Installer-friendly physical dimensions and is 2U rack mountable via the included mounting ears (ears are removable for non-rack installations).

As a highly efficient Class D amplifier, it does not require noisy cooling fans to maintain nominal operating temperature.

Two McIntosh W Meters display the summed power output of channels 1 + 2 and channels 3 + 4. Multi-color LED indicators display the status of each channel. Features a balanced and unbalanced input for each channel along with our standard 5-way speaker binding posts.

Other features included: Power Guard® signal overload technology that prevents overdriving the speakers; Sentry Monitor™ short-circuit protection that disengages the output stage before current exceeds safe operating levels; BUS input & outputs to easily distribute a stereo signal to multiple outputs and/or multiple amplifiers; individual channel inputs; 12 V triggering capabilities; and eco-friendly on/off signal sensing.
