The McIntosh MC152 also has a switch. There lies the problem. Care to explain what's happening?

Nope, tapping out .... ask McIntosh.

From Both Directions At Once, The Lost Album, of John Coltrane. SQ is typical of the 60s. A must have if you are a Coltrane fan.

Cheers,

Chuck Hinton of McIntosh replied:

The RCA input is connected to ½ of the balanced input, with 2 preamps connected, even with one off, the 2 legs of the balanced input will see 2 different loads and the amp will not run correctly.

In addition, preamp that is on will still be sending voltage to the OFF preamps output, this may cause damage.

If both the preamps are accidentally on, there will be a war and one will lose, damage is VERY likely.

 

Only one of the inputs on the amp should be connected at a time.
