For Fifty Years
1999 is the 50th year of business
for McIntosh Laboratory of
Binghamton, New York. It all
started when Frank H. McIntosh
organized a small electronic en-
gineering consulting firm in the
Washington, DC area. One of
the many goals his firm ad-
dressed was the need for a high
quality audio power
amplifier. No existing
amplifier at that time
could reproduce the
entire audio range
from 20Hz to
20,000Hz with low
distortion. Mr. McIn-
tosh had a dream. He
wanted to create an
audio power ampli-
fier that would far
surpass the limited
performance capa-
bilities of any power
amplifier available in
1948.
Mr. McIntosh assembled a
small team of talented and dedi-
cated people who shared his
ideas, and formed the original
McIntosh Engineering Labora-
tory. This beginning staff in-
cluded Gordon J. Gow and
Maurice L. Painchaud, both of
whom would spend the rest of
their productive lives working
for the company that later be-
came McIntosh Laboratory, Inc.
Initially both Mr. Gow and Mr.
Painchaud were directly in-
volved in design engineering.
McIntoshs First Amplifier
After months of research, the
dream had become reality. The
original McIntosh Power Am-
plifier, the 50W1, was created.
This amplifier was the first that
could truly be described as High
Fidelity, with 50 watts output
from 20 cycles to 20,000 cycles
with less than 1% distortion.
Now it was possible to repro-
duce music with a new degree
of sonic accuracy that had never
before been possible. The suc-
cess of the company was se-
cure. Additional new models
were added and the company
expanded into
new facilities in
B i n g h a m t o n ,
New York in
1951. At that time
the company
name was
changed to the
now familiar
McIntosh Labora-
tory, Inc. Gordon
Gow advanced to
become Execu-
tive Vice Presi-
dent of Sales and
after Frank McIn-
tosh retired, became Company
President for the last twelve
years of his life. Maurice L.
Painchaud became Vice Presi-
dent of Operations and the
Company Controller, and was
appointed President after the
untimely death of Gordon Gow.

Sidney A. Corderman
In 1951, Sidney A. Corderman
joined the Company as Chief
Engineer. He was directly in-
volved with the designs of all
the successful McIntosh prod-
ucts from that time on. His elec-
tronic genius is unparalleled in
the industry, and the advanced
performance of McIntosh prod-
ucts reflects his expertise. McIn-
tosh audio electronics have be-
come the international standard
for superior performance.
After 50 years, McIntosh
Laboratory is still producing ste-
reo equipment dedicated to the
same basic philosophy of pro-
viding the finest possible repro-
duction of music. The manage-
ment and financial assistance of
the present company owner,
Clarion of Japan, has made it
possible for McIntosh to greatly
expand and upgrade its design
and manufacturing facilities in
Binghamton, New York. The
home product lineup includes
many new and popular models
for both Stereo and Home The-
ater applications. A McIntosh
Automotive Audio product line
has been added that has
achieved a reputation for perfor-
mance, quality and reliability
similar to the home products.

After his retirement, Sidney
Corderman was called back as
interim President for a short pe-
riod and is currently a member
of the Board of Directors. Most
recently he came out of retire-
ment again to design the McIn-
tosh MC2000, a 50th Anniver-
sary Edition vacuum tube Power
Amplifier.
