Chief among them is that filter capacity has been doubled which has resulted in a dramatic 55% increase in dynamic headroom from 1.8dB to 2.8dB. This twofold increase in filter capacity also helps improve the performance of low end bass frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"mc-video-block\"\u003e\u003cvideo autoplay loop muted playsinline poster=\"https:\/\/www.mcintoshlabs.com\/-\/media\/videos\/mcintoshlabs\/short---flying-out-of-amplifier-thumbnail.jpg?rev=c76cff3233c149d1ad2b99038cd3498f\u0026amp;revision=c76cff32-33c1-49d1-ad2b-99038cd3498f\"\u003e\u003csource src=\"https:\/\/www.mcintoshlabs.com\/-\/media\/Videos\/McIntoshLabs\/Short---Flying-out-of-amplifier-1280a.mp4?rev=e847b980f58b46a7947baf76f2f739d4\u0026amp;revision=e847b980-f58b-46a7-947b-af76f2f739d4\" type=\"video\/mp4\"\u003e\u003c\/video\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"section-3\" class=\"mc-section\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The MC611s offer massive power with minimal distortion at all frequencies, into any load.
