MC2 Audio Ltd. has been manufacturing technologically innovative amplifiers of the highest quality for the pro-audio market for the past 10 years and is an OEM supplier to two of the top studio monitor manufacturers. Co-directors Terry Clarke and Ian McCarthy have combined their extensive experience in the audio industry with a commitment to promoting the highest standards of audio quality and reliability in manufacture. Terry gained a worldwide reputation for design as co-founder and Technical Director of Klark Teknik. Ian's early experience was in the hi-fi side of the industry before moving into the manufacture of public address equipment in 1979 and then into professional audio in the early 1990s. The story began in 1994 with the launch of the MC series at AES in Amsterdam. The first two models, MC450 and MC650, were in full production by September of that year and both amplifiers were received enthusiastically, being among the first in the market to be digitally controlled. The MC450 and MC650 were to set the very high standards of sonic quality and reliability for which MC2 Audio has gained a worldwide reputation, and which all products that followed would have to meet. Two years later, in September 1996, the MC1250 made its first appearance at PLASA, London and was greeted with much enthusiasm by existing and new customers. Since that time, the MC1250 has enjoyed particular interest from the discotheque and night-club market, where it has proved itself capable of maintaining its high performance levels in the most demanding conditions. The series was completed in October 1997 with the introduction of the MC750, offering customers a choice of amplifiers with power from 450W/channel into 4 ohms RMS through to 1250W/channel into 4 ohms RMS. All amplifiers in the MC series can be fitted with the option to be controlled remotely by PC (versions of Windows up to Windows98). The T Series made its debut at PLASA in September 2000, with the launch of the T500 (250W/channel into 4 ohms) and the T1000 (500W/channel into 4 ohms). PLASA 2001 saw the appearance of the T1500 (750W/channel into 4 ohms), and this was swiftly followed in March 2002 with the launch of the T2000 (1000W/channel into 4 ohms) at Pro Light & Sound in Frankfurt. In response to demand from a number of customers, the T LINE was introduced and also launched in Frankfurt that same year. This 100V/70V/50V chassis is capable of taking up to four 250W/500W/750W line transformers in any combination and is for use with the other models in the T Series. The last model to be developed in the T Series, the T4-250 quad amplifier (4 x 250W/channel into 4 ohms), made its debut at PLASA 2002 and completes this exciting range of amplifiers. The long awaited E Series, lightweight, switchmode amplifiers was first shown at Pro Light & Sound in March 2003. There was unqualified praise for the 'new-look' front panel and production of the first two models, E25 (1250W/channel into 4 ohms) and E15 (750W/channel into 4 ohms), got under way towards the end of 2003 and both the E25 and E15 are enjoying buoyant sales around the world. ProLight & Sound 2004 saw the launch of the E45 (2250W/channel into 4 ohms in a 2U chassis). This latest addition to the E Series received huge interest from both existing and new customers alike. Designed specifically for the touring market, the E Series has all the sonic qualities and reliability of the MC and T Series amplifiers, without the physical weight, and will bring the well renowned MC2 sound quality and reliability to an even wider range of users. All MC2 Audio products carry a full 5-year warranty. |
