Shield your valuable electronic devices from the dangers of inconsistent power quality with the MPC500 Power Controller. Designed to protect your home audio investment, the MPC500 offers comprehensive surge protection for both AC power line surges, like lightning strikes, and secondary surges that may occur afterwards.

Utilizing a thermally protected metal-oxide varistor (TPMOV), the MPC500 ensures Line to Neutral protection for AC power line surges, surpassing the safety of traditional MOVs. For secondary surge events, it employs Gas Discharge Tubes (GDT), Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) thermistors, and Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) components to safeguard your low voltage devices, including ethernet and coaxial connections. Moreover, the MPC500 features electromagnetic interference (EMI) filtering and over/under voltage protection, preventing connected devices from operating at undesirable voltage levels.

Choose between 8 Type B1 (NEMA 5-15R) or 4 Type F1 (CEE 7/3 or "Schuko") receptacles, depending on the version available in your country, ensuring compatibility with local power systems. You have full control over each receptacle's configuration through the rear panel Power Control ports or via the convenient setup menus on the front panel.

The front panel display provides real-time information such as input voltage, current draw, or total (apparent) power, keeping you informed about your power usage. Irrespective of receptacle type, the MPC500 showcases the iconic McIntosh black glass front panel, illuminated logo, control knobs, and aluminum end caps, embodying timeless elegance.

Safeguard your electronic devices with the McIntosh MPC500 Power Controller and enjoy uninterrupted, high-quality audio while preserving the longevity of your audio equipment.
