In short
Elevated Integration is a McIntosh dealer, designing and installing McIntosh systems for homes across Westchester, Fairfield County, New York City and the Hamptons. McIntosh has built amplifiers in Binghamton, New York since 1949: tube and solid-state amplifiers, preamplifiers, streamers and turntables, recognized by their blue watt meters. We bring clients to hear McIntosh at the House of Sound, McIntosh's townhouse in Chelsea, by appointment.
McIntosh is the American amplifier. Founded by Frank McIntosh in 1949 and still built in Binghamton, New York, it makes the equipment people keep for decades and hand down.
We design McIntosh into listening rooms and living rooms alike: a single integrated amplifier on a console, or a rack of monoblocks behind a pair of reference loudspeakers, with the meters glowing where you can see them.
- Since 1949
- Designed and built in Binghamton, New York, for more than seventy-five years.
- Blue watt meters
- The glass faceplate and blue meters show the music's power in real time, and have become the brand's signature.
- Output Autoformers
- McIntosh's own output transformers let its solid-state amplifiers deliver full power into 2, 4 or 8 ohm loudspeakers.
- Tube and solid state
- Vacuum tube and solid-state designs side by side, so the system is chosen by ear, not by format.

Hear it in Chelsea
The House of Sound, by appointment.
The House of Sound is McIntosh's townhouse in Chelsea: five floors and some 11,000 square feet of listening rooms, a private cinema, a vinyl library and a rooftop, set up with McIntosh amplification and Sonus Faber loudspeakers.
We bring clients there to listen before anything is chosen, from an intimate two-channel room to the reference system on the top floors. Tell us when suits you and we will arrange the visit and come with you.

Where we use McIntosh
The listening room
A preamplifier and stereo or mono amplifiers driving reference loudspeakers, set on furniture made for them.
The living room
One integrated amplifier and a turntable on a console, finished to sit with the room and play every evening.
Two-channel inside a theater
A McIntosh preamplifier with home theater pass-through, so the same speakers serve films and records.
The room and the house
Built into the room, part of the house
A McIntosh system can stand alone, with its own remote and its own ritual, or join the rest of the house. We place it on clean, dedicated power, plan ventilation for the amplifiers, and bring it into the same Savant system as the lights and shades when you want the listening room to start with one scene.
