Performance Features
The McIntosh MT10 Precision Turntable with the
McIntosh MCC10 Moving Coil Cartridge offers the
latest in playback of vinyl recordings. A full comple-
ment of performance features allows for the enjoyment
of all recordings reproduced with flawless realism.
The advanced electronic and mechanical design en-
sures many years of smooth trouble free operation.
• Advanced Technology Turntable
The MT10 combines the latest technology in Phono
Cartridges, Tone Arms, Mechanical Suspensions and
Record Platter Rotation for superb performance and
accurate operation.
• Moving Coil Cartridge
The McIntosh MCC10 Moving Coil Cartridge has a
hand polished ebony wood-tone body and is slightly
rounded, leading to a resonance free construction.
High impedance, together with high output voltage,
ensures noise free musical reproduction. The ruler-flat
frequency response from 20Hz to 20kHz provides
solid realistic bass, uncolored midrange and natural
high frequencies.
• Tone Arm
The MT10 Tone Arm is made from Dural-Aluminum
with special damping material. The Tone Arm is
both light in weight and highly rigid. The noise free
Vertical Bearings are made from two high precision
ceramic surfaces with damping fluid. The Horizontal
Bearing is a gimballed sapphire design.
Introduction and Performance Features
• Turntable Platter
The over twelve pound, two and one-half inch thick
platter is made from a special silicone acrylic material.
This helps to resist external vibrations from reaching
the record during playback and its large mass provides
the perfect flywheel action for stable playback speed.
• Precision Motor and Drive Electronics
The Swiss made DC Brushless Motor is controlled by
a highly refined servo control system. As the Turn-
table Platter rotates, an optical sensor “reads” the 1595
micro stripes on a disk affixed to the bottom of the
platter. This provides precise feedback information to
the servo control system thus assuring very accurate
speed rotation.
• Illuminated Speed Meter
The Illuminated Speed Meter on the MT10 indicates
the true rotation speed of the turntable platter.
• Magnetic Air Dampened Bearing
The MT10 Turntable Platter rotates on a special bear-
ing using magnetic suspension together with a cushion
of air to provide vibration free rotation.
• Multi-Layered Dampened Chassis
The MT10 Turntable Chassis is composed from a
Stainless Steel base plate, a thick Aluminum plate,
an Acrylic plate and together with internal dampen-
ing material all help to assure the only sound heard is
from the record groove itself.
• Power Control
The Power Control Input connection provides conve-
nient Turn-On/Off of the MT10 Front Panel Illumi-
nation when connected to a McIntosh System with
Power Control.
• Fiber Optic Solid State Illumination
The even Illumination of the Front Panel and the Turn-
table Platter is accomplished by the combination of
custom designed Fiber Optic Light Diffusers and extra
long life Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs).
• Glass Front Panel and Super Mirror Chassis Fin-
ish
The famous McIntosh Illuminated Glass Front Panel
and the Stainless Steel Chassis with Super Mirror
Finish ensure the pristine beauty of the MT10 will be
retained for many years.
