Description

The McIntosh MHT300 Home Theater Receiver (AVR) is a high-performance, versatile 7.2 (or 5.2.2) channel home theater powerhouse, offering exceptional sound and video quality. It supports cutting-edge technologies such as 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz video, along with advanced surround sound formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS


. Whether you're watching movies, sports, or gaming, the MHT300 promises to deliver an immersive experience with McIntosh's signature power and precision.

 

Key Features:

Full Power to All Speakers

Unlike many receivers that provide high power ratings only for a few channels, the MHT300 delivers 120-150 Watts per channel to all seven channels. This ensures that all your speakers—whether 4 Ohm or 8 Ohm—receive maximum power, providing a consistent and powerful listening experience across all channels. From explosive action sequences to subtle background sounds, each speaker will be fully engaged for an immersive theater experience.

Expandable for Future Needs

The MHT300 is highly adaptable and can grow with your home theater setup. If you decide to add more channels in the future, it supports external amplification to expand beyond 7.2 channels. With additional external amplifiers (like the McIntosh MI254), you can easily upgrade to configurations like 7.2.4, adding more height channels for Dolby Atmos or DTS


setups.

 

State-of-the-Art Room Correction

The MHT300 features Dirac Live® Room Correction, an advanced acoustic solution that optimizes sound by correcting room-related issues. Dirac Live uses proprietary algorithms to improve time domain accuracy, providing superior sound quality. It’s trusted by many high-end brands and is easy to set up with a user-friendly interface.

Connectivity and Audio Quality

The MHT300 is packed with connectivity options:

  • 4 HDMI Inputs and 1 HDMI Output (supports 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz)
  • HDCP 2.3 compliance, ensuring future-proof compatibility with new video formats
  • eARC functionality via HDMI for high-resolution audio formats like DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS

    , Dolby TrueHD, and Dolby Atmos
  • Two coaxial and two optical digital inputs for connecting additional audio devices
  • 7 Premium 32-bit DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) for high-quality audio processing
  • Tone controls (bass and treble) to customize the audio to your preferences
  • Dual subwoofer outputs for enhanced low-end performance

Easy Setup and Integration

Setting up the MHT300 is straightforward, thanks to its computer interface that allows for pre-configuration. The system is also compatible with RS232 control protocol for easy integration into home automation systems, including Control4. Whether you use the included remote control or integrate it into a larger automation setup, the MHT300 provides flexibility and ease of use.

Protection and Eco Features

The MHT300 includes several safety features:

  • Power Guard to prevent overdriving and damaging speakers
  • Sentry Monitor to protect against short-circuits and automatically reset once normal conditions are restored
  • Eco-friendly on/off signal sensing that powers down the unit when no signal is detected, and powers it back on when a signal is sensed

Design and Build

True to McIntosh’s legacy, the MHT300 is a beautifully designed unit that can serve as a centerpiece in your home theater. It includes rack-mounting brackets for easy integration into a 3U rack system, offering flexibility in placement. Its classic McIntosh styling ensures it looks as good as it sounds.

Additional Features:

  • FM Tuner for enjoying over-the-air radio broadcasts
  • Power Control to automatically turn McIntosh components on or off in sync
  • Signal overload and short-circuit protection for safe, reliable operation

Conclusion:

The McIntosh MHT300 Home Theater Receiver is a premium, feature-rich AV receiver designed for those seeking top-tier performance in both audio and video. With its ability to deliver full power to all channels, cutting-edge room correction, and flexible expansion options, it’s an excellent choice for anyone serious about building a world-class home theater. Whether you're adding more speakers in the future or fine-tuning your current setup, the MHT300 provides the tools and power to bring your cinematic dreams to life.
