McIntosh MHT300: the ultimate 7.2-channel AV receiver

The famous manufacturer with blue VU meters has just unveiled the McIntosh MHT300 AV receiver. This 7.2 or 5.2.2 channel Dolby Atmos and DTS:X model is exceptional, with a phenomenal 7 x 120 watts per channel into 8 ohms. It supports the latest 4K 120 fps and 8K 60 fps UHD standards, as well as many proprietary technologies to provide the ultimate experience for movie lovers, audiophiles and gamers.

The new McIntosh MHT300 AV receiver features 7.2 channels of amplification, convertible to 5.2.2 channels for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X tracks. For the most comprehensive installations, it has pre-outs allowing you to connect a power amp and create a 7.2.4 channel system.

McIntosh’s reputation has always been built on electronics with remarkable qualities and enormous power. The McIntosh MHT300 AV receiver is no exception, offering a phenomenal 120 watts of power into 8 ohms and 150 watts into 4 ohms. While this data may seem modest compared to the competition, it is important to note that for the most part, the power output of amplifiers is provided either in stereo or with only one channel in operation. The McIntosh MHT300, on the other hand, is capable of delivering this power across all of its channels, totaling over 1050W into 4 ohms. This means that it will be able to power the most demanding home theater speakers without difficulty.

The video section of the McIntosh MHT300 receiver consists of four HDMI inputs and one output. They are all compatible with 8K UHD streams at 60 fps and 4K UHD at up to 120Hz. To extend the dynamic range, the McIntosh MHT300 receiver is compatible with HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG standards. Although the McIntosh MHT300’s inputs and outputs are in HDMI 2.1 format, it’s important to note that they don’t support all the features associated with this standard, notably the QMS, VRR, and ALLM gaming technologies.
