Product Description
MC² Audio T1000
Description:
The MC² Audio T1000 is a professional 2-channel Class AB power amplifier manufactured in England, highly regarded in high-end theater, studio, and commercial installation markets for its exceptional sonic transparency and reliability.
Technical Specifications
Unlike standard commercial amplifiers that utilize dynamic power rail switching, the T1000 uses a pure bipolar topology and a current-driven floating drive stage to maintain an uncolored, distortion-free signal path.
Output Power (Per Channel)450W @ 8Ω
750W @ 4Ω • 1150W @ 2Ω
Output Power (Bridged)1500W @ 8Ω • 2300W @ 4Ω
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)< 0.008% @ 1kHz • < 0.03% (20Hz to 20kHz)
Frequency Response20Hz to 20kHz (+0 / -0.5dB)
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)Better than 104dB (unweighted)
Input Sensitivity / Gain+3.5dBu (1.20V) / 32dB

Dimensions 2U Rackmount • 88(h) x 482(w) x 428(d) mm
Weight13.8 kg (30.4 lbs)
Key Hardware Features
- Bipolar Class AB Topology: Delivers maximum audio definition and fast transients without the digital high-frequency artifacts common in Class D switching amplifiers.
- Sophisticated Sidechain Limiters: Prevents signal clipping and driver damage while remaining completely out of the circuit path until the exact threshold of distortion is reached.
- Intelligent Protection Circuitry: Monitors for shorted outputs, DC offset, and thermal overloads, featuring a delayed "soft start" turn-on to handle inrush current safely.
- Low-Noise Cooling: Uses variable-speed, whisper-quiet fans that adjust dynamically to temperature, minimizing physical mechanical noise in tight studio or live theater environments.
- Professional I/O: Features analog front-panel level controls, Neutrik 3-pole XLR audio inputs, and secure Neutrik Speakon outputs.
If you are tracking down a unit, let me know if you are looking to buy new or used, what specific mains voltage variant you need (120V vs 240V), or what loudspeakers you plan on pairing it with so I can help optimize your signal path.
