Compact high-end stereo NETWORK/CD/DAB/FM receiver

What does the perfect wish list of a hi-fi fan look like? Quite simple. Ideally, a modern hi-fi component that is able to do everything. That's exactly the case with the MC 400. The all in one receiver combines all the sources you could wish for with high-quality technology and all this in the classic, full component format.

Sources? Everything, simply everything


The MC 400 really does have everything on board that makes a music fan's heart beat faster. This starts with classic sources such as a FM tuner, DAB+ and of course a phono input (MM). In addition, there are analogue connections such as a headphone jack, cinch as well as digital inputs, optical and coaxial. HDMI is also available, so that the MC 400 can also be used as an impressive sound upgrade for all TV sources. Those who listen to CDs will love the discreetly integrated slot-in CD drive. The technology behind it: A professional CD drive that is found in high end DJ equipment.

Music from the web in HD


Things get really exciting when it comes to the MC 400's network capabilities. Via Ethernet and WLAN, the Magnat receiver allows the use of Spotify and other streaming platforms. Other services can be conveniently selected via the Magnat app.

TuneIn allows sovereign access to tens of thousands of internet radio stations worldwide.
What more does a music fan want? Quite clearly, Hi-Res audio. The MC 400 is certified by the Japan Audio Society with the Hi-Res Audio logo and plays back music with the required resolutions of up to 24 bits and sampling rates of up to 192 kHz. This makes it a true universal genius when it comes to audio.
The MC 400 also masters Bluetooth. The aptX-HD® module used guarantees the highest possible sound quality from any wireless source, be it a smartphone, a tablet or even the PC.

Groundbreaking design - intuitive operation


So many capabilities deserve an iconic exterior and perfect operation. With a width of 43 cm, the MC 400 has the full, familiar hi-fi format and an almost minimalist operating concept, despite the wealth of functions. This is made possible by the 2.8-inch or 7 cm TFT screen. This not only makes operation child's play, but also allows the display to show cover art and additional information, depending on the source.
A remote control is the second option for operation of the MC 400. The Magnat app, which is available free of charge for iOS and Android, is really convenient. Here, the various music services can be conveniently controlled, the music in the network can be tracked down and the multi-room functions can be used. The currently selected music can be easily extended to other rooms or disconnected from them again. The inputs for a 3.5 mm headphone jack cable and USB are located on the front panel. This way, you can quickly connect a portable source or a USB stick. The headphone jack on the front is for those moments when you want to enjoy music without disturbing others.

Carefully selected technology


To achieve all this, we reached deep into the shelves of the best audio components. TThe D/A
converter from Cirrus can process signals at upto 24 bits and 192 kHz. The phono preamplifier for MM cartridges offers fabulously low distortion values, and the Linkplay module for using the streaming services and for the multi-room capabilities also plays sovereign with up to 192 kHz and 24 bits. This means that any source can be processed and listened to in the best possible quality. The discrete power amplifiers are then responsible for the listening. Bipolar configured power transistors deliver a continuous power of 60 and a peak power of 100 watts per channel.

We have packed all this into a stable housing with a front panel made of solid aluminium, so that it is clear at every touch what quality is hidden here. The same applies to the rear panel. Stable and electrically and acoustically perfect inputs and outputs guarantee undisturbed signal flow and lossless power delivery.

Magnat MC 400 - for every hi-fi fan


The MC 400 is the ideal control center for every hi-fi fan. Whether you are a lover of analogue sources or have already arrived in the digital age is not the question. Here, you don't have to do without anything, you don't have to decide. The MC 400 offers the full range of sources and usage options for every stereo fan. Whether streaming service, vinyl, Bluetooth, Hi-Res Audio or perfect sound for the TV, the Magnat MC400 can do it all.

Magnat MA 900 - The perfect combination of tube sound and performance

When it comes to amplifiers, there have always been two construction principles: Tubes and transistors. While tubes produce a captivating euphoria, because the technology used enables them to add harmonic overtones to the music signals, transistors deliver brute power to drive even the most demanding speakers. So why not combine both? This is exactly what the Magnat MA 900 does. We have combined two hand-selected audiophile tubes in the preamplifier together with powerful transistors in the power amplifier, thereby creating the symbiosis of sound and power.

Magnat MA 900 – Tube technology for finesse, transistors for performance


Why use tubes anyway? Tube amplifiers, or rather ´tubes´ in the audio sector, have an inherent flaw. This, however, is an extremely pleasant flaw. They produce harmonic overtones. This means that a signal of 1,000 Hz is also reproduced with harmonics of 2,000 Hz, 3,000 Hz and so on. In doing so, the harmonics are naturally much quieter than the actual sound. Our ears perceive these harmonics as being very pleasant. The disadvantage of tubes, however, is that they are neither particularly powerful nor particularly efficient. This means you cannot really coax a lot of output power from them.

This is where the tried and tested transistors come into play. They are able to produce an impressive performance with an unadulterated sound, provided that you choose the right models of course. For these reasons, two ECC 81 tubes are used in the preamplifier of the MA 900. These are selected prior to installation. This ensures every MA 900 is equipped with two tubes that are perfectly identical in terms of their values. In addition, the tubes are also "burned-in" before installation. This is a process that takes several hours, during which the ECC 81 tubes are able to reach their final performance values. This ensures our MA 900 is capable of producing the sound for which our good name stands - as soon as it is unpacked.

MA 900 – Audiophile with various talents


Audiophile qualities are only part of what´s required today. A modern amplifier also needs to be suitable for all of the sources that we want to use at home. 5 analogue low-level inputs and an additional jack input at the front of the unit offer sufficient connection options for all manner of audio equipment. The optical and coaxial digital inputs also support high-res audio with a sampling rate of up to 192 kHz and 24 bit. In addition, the MA 900 also comes complete with Bluetooth functionality. The state-of-the-art chip supports Bluetooth 5.0 and the high-end audio standard aptX®HD, thereby enabling optimum quality audio transmission from smartphones, tablets and laptops.

Vinyl is by no means neglected either. The phono preamplifier, which offers separate inputs for MM and MC systems, has been constructed with extremely high-quality operational amplifiers from Texas Instruments. The "Source Gain" function allows all of the inputs to be increased or decreased in terms of level by up to 6 dB, so that jumps in volume can be avoided when switching inputs. In addition, the inputs can be individually named by using the "Source Rename" function, meaning that the days of cryptic abbreviations are a thing of the past.

Classic dimensions – Optimum workmanship


The MA 900 naturally has typical grid dimensions and measures 433 mm wide, which enables it to be perfectly combined with our other components. The sturdy solid metal housing provides a robust framework for the high-quality electronic components. The solid aluminum front panel and operating elements are made to last and convey the feeling of quality with every touch.

This is also reflected by the components inside the unit. An elaborate power supply unit, generously dimensioned capacitors and a low-leakage toroidal transformer, together with the rest of the electronics, add up to a weight of almost 12 kilograms.

Magnat MA 700 - the pure doctrine of good sound

We are known for connecting things together and merging technologies. This is why our brand new MA 700 stereo amplifier offers the incomparable combination of tube technology for captivating sound and robust transistor power amplifiers, so that even larger speakers can be used without any problems. Beyond that, however, we have given the MA 700 everything it takes to be able to reproduce all your diverse media. In addition to all imaginable analogue and digital inputs as well as Bluetooth, this also includes an HDMI input. And that makes our amplifier a real all-rounder.

The best of both worlds - tube sound and transistor performance


Anyone who knows us knows that we do not compromise. But doesn't every technology have to make some concessions? Tubes sound fantastic because they generate harmonic waves that perfectly round off the sound. However, it is difficult to get enough power from them for demanding speakers. Transistor amplifiers do develop this power, on the other hand.

That’s why we have combined the two. The low-noise tube preamplifier of the MA 700 features the now legendary ECC 81 double triode tube. This is carefully selected and "burned in" so that we can guarantee for each MA 700 that everything is perfectly coordinated for you to enjoy music for years to come. The powerful and highly efficient transistors then take care of amplifying the music signals - and do it properly. 70 watts of continuous power are available per channel. At its peak, the MA 700 delivers a system output of 250 watts.

MA 700 - This is how television can benefit from tube sound


Every signal, whether from the five analogue inputs, two digital inputs or via the Bluetooth receiver with its lossless aptX standard, can enjoy the musical wellness treatment provided by the tube preamp - this is also true for the HDMI input. All digital signals first pass through an extremely high-quality D/A converter.

An HDMI input on the stereo amplifier? But of course! If this is connected to the back-channel HDMI output on the TV set, which can be recognised by the abbreviation ARC, all audio signals from the TV and the connected sources then also go through the MA 700. That means tube sound for everyone, even for a connected game console or the set-top box. And as our HDMI input is CEC-capable, the volume can be easily controlled afterwards using the TV remote control.

MA 700 design: Reduced for full focus on musical escapades


The design of the MA 700? Reduced to the maximum - after all, nothing should distract from the music, but instead prepare everything for it. The full metal housing is embellished by a solid aluminum front panel. Nine LEDs indicate the currently selected input. These can be dimmed in two stages. The controls, i.e. the rotary controls for input selection, balance, bass and treble, as well as the large-format volume control, are also made of solid aluminum. On the right side, the - in the truest sense of the word - optical highlight: The round window through which the tube glows magically. We have equipped the back of the MA 700 with solid speaker terminals

A hybrid amplifier for all media


If you are enthusiastic about hi-fi components with classic dimensions, you no longer have to compromise on media suitability. Our MA 700 hybrid stereo amplifier combines the power of transistors with the sensitivity of tube technology. Added to this is the variety of connections up to and including Bluetooth 5.0 aptX and, as an absolute highlight, the possibility of bringing the TV set with all its sources into the hi-fi world via HDMI.
