They blend in nicely with the overall Art Deco look. While not overly flashy, the look is still quite nice with black end bell covers on the transformers. The power and output transformers were intentionally installed on the metal chassis exposed with no metal cages nor enclosures to conceal them. After hours of play the amp was never hot to the touch. Electronic components last longer when not subject to heat. Some manufacturers utilize fans and have little-to-no enclosure ventilation. There are no fans, and the metal enclosure will never get hot to the human touch. The thick metal enclosure was specifically designed for structural integrity and good airflow. The amplifier measures 13 x 17 x 9.25 inches and weighs in at a hefty 60lbs. It was red, white, and chrome with a distinct Art Deco look to it. Upon opening the box I was taken aback by the sheer beauty of the amp. No need injuring one's back lifting this thing solo.) (Side note - I was still recovering from a nasty bit of knee surgery and a post surgery hemorrhage issue that confined me to a recliner most of the time for 5 months, lifting alone was not an option and I would recommend help to even the most hardy buyer. This is not lightweight, and due to the weight of the transformers it required a bit of help to get it out of the case and set on the base I had arranged for the amp. This is an amplifier that pictures could never do true justice to.Īs with previous products the amplifier arrived in a Pelican case and heavily packed. The fit and finish even excels that of the SA1. All electronic components are rated above their intended usage, installed within the beautiful and rugged American made thick steel enclosure that is powder coated throughout to resist corrosion, and each amplifier is thoroughly tested to ensure the audio consumer will enjoy it for a lifetime…and backed by a lifetime warranty!" It is here, in Gainesville, VA that he creates his beautiful works of audio art. Components such as German made Mundorf oil-filled capacitors, American made custom transformers and Teflon coated silver plated copper wire in conjunction with Cardas silver solder were all carefully selected, and then hand assembled by Mike McGary in Gainesville Virginia. "McGary Audio power amplifiers exude quality using only the finest electrical components selected for their sound, quality and reliability. Well Mike McGary is at it again with the new SA2 Stereo Amplifier and what a follow up to the SA1 it is. It made the PF Writer's Awards list and that is not something that is easy to do. It was a wonderful amp and highly recommended. Thanks for the help with the Antenna's and for all the small things that you have kindly let me have, but especially for the Elecraft K3 that you let me buy off you, I love her lots.Readers might remember my review of the McGary Audio SA1 in 2018 ( HERE).
