So…what do you all think of the Michi S5 (2x500w) vs the McIntosh mc452 (2x450w)?
- The Michi is a good bit less expensive, and has 50w/channel more power.
- The mc452 has a “quad balanced” design which is supppsed to help with quick l fluctuations in power requirements.
Any input, thoughts, commentary, or advice would be really helpful!

Check out the stereophile measurements for the MC462. Into the 4 ohm taps it clips at 720W. Their specified 450w per channel is a very conservative figure. The amp has plenty of headroom.
