Compatibility · McIntosh C52
Your C52, modernized.
Link adds Wi‑Fi control to the C52 preamplifier. Volume, mute, inputs, outputs, meter lights and power, from iPhone, Android or any browser, anywhere in your house.
Link and the C52.
Connection
The C52 has a 3.5 mm RS-232 jack. The supplied 3.5 mm cable fits. Link detects the model by itself and shows the C52's own inputs and features.
What you control
Volume, mute, inputs, outputs, meter lights and power. Settings the C52 stores per input follow the input.
Volume safety
Volume moves one step at a time, each confirmed by the C52. A limit you set is enforced in Link, for every phone in the house.
Nothing changes on the C52
Its remote, front panel and settings work as before. Link mirrors the C52; turn the knob and every screen follows.
Inputs on the C52.
16 inputs, one button each. Hide the ones you never use and rename the rest.
