The McIntosh MCD85 is a two-in-one disc player and digital-to-analog converter. It plays SACD and CD discs and also works as a standalone DAC for a computer, streamer or TV, so one box handles both physical media and digital sources. It carries McIntosh's signature look: a black glass front, blue meters and illuminated logo. It suits listeners with a disc collection who also want a high-quality DAC, and it competes with dedicated SACD players and separate DACs from brands like Esoteric, Marantz and PS Audio.

The McIntosh MCD85 is an SACD/CD player and DAC with an open chassis design. It plays store-bought SACDs and CDs, as well as homemade CD or DVD data discs. Files on those discs can be AAC, AIFF, ALAC, DSD (up to DSD128), FLAC, MP3, WAV or WMA.
A quad balanced, 8-channel, 32-bit/192kHz DAC converts the digital data to analog. Four channels are dedicated to the left audio channel and four to the right. A USB Audio input streams digital music from a computer or other digital storage device and supports up to DSD256 and DXD 384kHz. Two coax and two optical digital inputs support PCM signals up to 192kHz.
Balanced and unbalanced fixed analog stereo outputs connect the player to a preamplifier, integrated amplifier or other components. Because of the narrower width and balanced outputs, it can sit close to the listening position, with long balanced cables running to the rest of the system. Power Control and data ports allow integration with other McIntosh home audio components.
