The McCormack MAP-1 is a six-channel analog preamplifier designed to preserve the musical integrity of the new high resolution DVD-A and SACD audio formats. This piece is known for excellent quality audio! Unlike most SSPs, the MAP-1 is an audiophile quality preamplifier that processes the analog-only outputs of these new players without first converting to digital and re-converting to analog, allowing the user to fully enjoy the remarkable musicality of these new formats.The MAP-1 features two sets of multi-channel inputs and three pairs of two-channel inputs.
The user interface has been designed for convenient and intuitive operation. A setup mode allows convenient adjustment of the relative levels of the six channels.
An Ambiance Retrieval Mode (ARM) can be enabled to generate a center channel output and to extract ambient information for the rear channels when provided with a two-channel source. Of course, ARM can be defeated, for pure two-channel playback.
The MAP-1 is also a perfect solution for those seeking to include a simple home theater in a quality music system. Just combine with one of the many DVD players that offer built-in Dolby Digital processing to enjoy movie surround sound without compromising music playback performance.
