Musical Fidelity

You listen to CDs or stream music without picture, but have you ever watched a movie without sound? The sound of a movie carries a significant part to deliver emotions and tell stories. Silence is as important as bombastic loudness. Sound designers use sound effects, foleys and music to enhance your experience. A soundbar can never reproduce a real cinema feeling. The M6x 250.7 will take your home cinema to the next level.The Full Cinematic ExperienceFor many people, the cinema is just a place with a big screen and expensive snacks - but there is more, which is usually not visible at all: The surround-sound-system. It all started with a simple three speaker setup in the 1980s and evolved to object based systems with up to 20 speakers. With the new M6x 250.7 you can easily create a powerful 7.1 home cinema setup (your active subwoofer is powered separately). You can connect your preamplifier/AV processor with either RCA or fully balanced XLR cables. The XLR connection furthermore enhances the sound quality and keeps the signal transmission clean.The Musical Fidelity M6x 250.7 will not only satisfy you with its sound quality, but also with the high quality metalwork and overall clean look. The front panel, in either black or silver finish, is a custom-made fine line aluminium extrusion.ConnectionThe M6x 250.7 offers a gold-plated RCA and a balanced XLR input per channel. If you have XLR outputs on your preamp, we always recommend using a balanced connection. This kind of signal transmission leads to increased dynamics, less noise and improved signal-to-noise ratios. If you need the same signal on multiple inputs for e.g., bi-amping, you can use the gold-plated RCA through output and distribute the signal to the next input. The gold-plated isolated speaker output terminals accept 4 mm Banana plugs, spades connectors or naked wire. The trigger in-/output allows you to turn the device on/off via other components.PowerOur new multichannel amplifier is built modular with one 250W class A/B amplifier stage per channel. We designed our amplifier to sound highly natural by keeping all transients and micro information. The super silent audiophile power transformer distributes clean power, which results in a high dynamic range and a detailed sound stage. This is a major feature for a home cinema amplifier. The M6x 250.7 is able to preserve all the details and emotion, no matter which volume. Due to the sophisticated heat sink design, the M6x 250.7 does not need a fan to keep the amplifier cool. Despite its big power, you will never hear any fan noise coming from the amp.

In Hi-Fi, the Musical Fidelity A1 has become one of the most classic designs – inside and out. First released back in 1985, it quickly made waves for being an absolute beast when it came down to driving some of the most difficult speakers of that time, even though it was actually a rather low powered integrated amplifier. But: it was all done in pure Class A with excellent and expertly laid out discrete symmetrical circuitry topology and using only highest quality components. The A1 showed people that there was more to amplifiers than just high power.Based on its huge success, the A1 has gone through multiple reissues and new versions over the years.Now for 2023, for the first time since its initial release we have actually kept all specifications, the appearance and circuits of the 1985 rendition for those who missed out the first time. With an updated transformer, power supplies and modern low noise components we’ve revitalized the formula and are proud to reintroduce the fresh original – three decades later.Technical TalkThe A1 is built around a completely discrete and symmetrical Class A topology. It‘s able to output 25W of pure Class A power @ 8 ohms load with 25A of maximum output. While the numbers here might seem rather low, the ability for the output stage to drive difficult speakers is a small miracle in itself. The amp design being dynamic class A, and if Class A standing current is exceeded, it will automatically allow more. It therefore “slides” (NOT “switches”) smoothly into class B style operation, temporarily allowing the further current draw needed.Power SupplyThe new A1 has received an updated transformer from shared (1985 original) to more efficient “dual mono split rail” windings. The amp stages are supplied by fully independent left and right power supplies for better power handling and stereo imaging and each power amplifier now has double supply capacity resulting in reduced ripple and noise.The transformer‘s noise and heat dissipation are reduced due to better efficiency and updated components. The main supplies are filtered for better regulation and reduced switch on surge.PreamplifierThe low noise preamplifier circuitry is the same as the original 1985 design and, as we have highlighted above, greatly benefits from the improved, fully smoothed and regulated power supplies.Among the discernible alterations, one that immediately catches the eye is the addition of a new „direct“ switch at the preamp stage. With this switch you can totally bypass the gain block before the volume control, resulting in roughly 10dB less gain. This feature proves particularly advantageous when working with modern or high-output digital sources, enabling fine tuning the range of your volume potentiometer and accommodating sensitive loudspeakers.Furthermore, a notable upgrade has been made to the volume potentiometer itself, now replaced by a premium ALPS RK series potentiometer. This high-quality component ensures superior performance and enhanced precision. Additionally, the potentiometer is now motorized, granting you the convenience of adjusting the volume from the comfort of your couch, courtesy of the new included remote control.Phono StageThe A1 employs a discrete current-mode input stage for lowest noise amplification of MC and MM cartridges. A low noise current to voltage conversion stage is used for further amplification and RIAA equalization. Automatic input impedance matching for the selected MC input, along with increased gain increases the versatility of the A1‘s phono stage.The return of a true Hi-Fi classicThe A1 has one secret. This secret is simple: it makes music. It sounds sweet and fluid and creates a beautiful atmosphere around natural instruments. Especially in small to mid-sized rooms, carefully set up with a pair of great two-way speakers. It is not a powerhouse, but music lovers will cherish its abilities.It‘s also not a product that you‘ll want to hide. A perfect example of form follows function. The oversized heatsinks define the A1‘s look, but they are essential for its operation. Truly unique, from the outside and inside.The A1 has a sweet, warm, full and exciting sound. No harshness. No grain. Just pure music. It doesn‘t get muddy, and despite its lower power, drives difficult speakers with ease. It remains clean right up to its power limit. To hear what the A1 does is to hear what Hi-Fi is supposed to do: it makes music, pure and simple.The A1 through time - Improvements to the originalUpdated transformer to more efficient “dual mono split rail” windingsHigh quality and updated ALPS RK series potentiometer as volume controlIR remote control added for volumeGain block before volume control totally by passable using “direct” switch (-10dB)All transistors including output devices are carefully selected modern equivalentsAll capacitors in signal path are polypropylene (PP) typeResistors are modern low noise metal film typesCare and attention made to not change any component specification from original but to update them to modern equivalent with long lifespanLayout faithfully follows original within circuit sections on circuit boardCircuit sections better laid out, in particular the separate supplies and power amplifiersPhono stage and preamplifier improved for less noise and humThe A1 in Brief25W Pure Class A power @ 8 OhmDiscrete symmetrical topologyPlanar Audio transistors with 25A maximum outputDynamic class A, slides (NOT switches) smoothly into Class B, allowing more current as neededTherefore drives difficult speakers with no problemsUpdated transformer to “dual mono split rail” windingsFully independent left and right power suppliesEach power amplifier now has double supply capacityTransformer noise and heat dissipation reducedFiltered main suppliesGain block before volume control totally bypassable using “direct” switchHigh quality and updated ALPS RK series potentiometerLow noise TL071 JFET preamplifier circuitryDiscrete current-mode MM/MC phono input stageLow noise current to voltage converter for further amplification and RIAA equalisationAutomatic input impedance matching (1K nominal) for MC along with increased gainOriginal (1985) A1 appearance and circuits with modern improvementsRemote control added for volumeModern updated low noise components

The Musical Fidelity LS5/9 is a two-way bass reflex speaker which was designed to reproduce sound at high levels to fulfil the complete range of music genres from classical to pop music. As the speaker was originally designed for recording studio applications, a low level of coloration was the goal to keep the musicitself untouched.The bass reflex principle allows the speaker to reach a higher sound pressure. The LS5/9 is truly honest and brings the music to you exactly like the mixing engineer wanted it to sound. The speaker also gives you the possibility to adjust the high-frequency level by resistor jumps to fit your listening preferences.Built to suit every musical genreThe LS5/9 became an industry standard for music studios, because it was the go-to solution for every genre. That is also the reason it gained more and more popularity also in living rooms. It is able to deliver high sound pressure levels with low colouration and powerful bass. The music stays controlled all the time and the LS5/9 never seems to be over strained. Especially, the stereo center is well-defined and vocals stay natural. Also, the stereo information of instruments is clear, and the sound stage does not feel synthetic at any time.The LS5/9 was produced by several speaker manufacturers over many decades already, and we are happy to include this special speaker in our Musical Fidelity range.The Musical Fidelity LS5/9 was manufactured according to the BBC R&D design 1983/10.The LS5/9 In BriefTwo way, bass reflex typeNominal Impedance: 8 OhmsSensitivity: 89dB/W/MManufactured according to the BBC R&D design 1983/10For mid/farfield listening distancesDesigned for low level of colouration that keeps the music untouchedBass reflex allows the speaker to reach higher sound pressure levelsHigh sound pressure levels with low colouration and powerful bassExtremely controlled music reproduction, the LS5/9 never seems to be over strainedTruly extraordinary sound stage and imaging with a well defined and articulate center imagePerfect combination with bigger Musical Fidelity amplifiers like the M5si, M6si, M6si500Astonishingly clear, detailed, honest and warm sound stage

The M5si is a real high end amplifier. At 150wpc, with high current delivery, it will drive virtually any loudspeaker easily. Internally the M5si is configured as two independent monoblocs with a separate preamp, but all mounted on one pcb. Its technical performance is about equal to the M6si. The M5si has very low distortion, outstanding noise ratio and an extremely flat frequency response. Inputs; phono (mm), 4 line, and USB ’B’ up to 24bit 96kHz. The M5si produces an extraordinary sweet clear lucid sound. Significantly it was developed after our amazing legendary Nu-Vista 800. Consequently some of the Nu-Vista 800’s subtle pcb layout solutions have found their way into the M5si. When you hear it we are sure you will understand the relationship between the two. The M5si projects a deep and wide stereo image with very extended bass and a crystalline top end without a trace of harshness.

Not only for professional useOver the years, the LS3/5A became an industry standard for music studios, especially for classical recordings. It also quickly gained interest in the audiophile sector. Due to the small size, the LS3/5A is the perfect fit for small living rooms. Do not get fooled by the size: The speaker surprises with a lot of low end information. Due to the closed type design, the bass is quick and perfectly defined, compared to a bass reflex speaker.The LS3/5A was produced by several speaker manufacturers over many decades already. The Musical Fidelity A1 was always the perfect partner with its Class A amplification. The result was an astonishing clear, detailed and warm sound stage.

Musical Fidelity has always been driven by the vision to create musically engaging audio products which can hold this standard of fidelity for many generations to come. Many MF classics are still in the hands of their proud owners and have proven the success of our design philosophy.Streaming in Musical Fidelity TraditionThe MX-Stream is developed with the same goal in mind as everything else at Musical Fidelity. Technically correct design that not only measures like a dream but also sounds like it. In order for it to be true to the original Musical Fidelity spirit it has to have our warm yet transparent and incredibly detailed signature sound and not just be technical wizardry for the sake of clean technical measurements. We have to hear it, we have to feel it, and we have to be moved by it.There are audio products of the past that did not necessarily measure so well, but people still grew to love them. This can also be done with close to perfect technical specifications and the same dedication to the actual perceivable sound qualities. And Musical Fidelity have done exactly this – always.As a result, these pieces of audio gear are elevated to the highest levels and become the true entries into affordable, no nonsense high-end.

The M3x ViNYL is a phono stage, designed to be without any practical limits. Connectivity is straight forward. You have an input and an output. Neither of them can be overloaded at the input or limited in the output driving capacity. It can be set for either MM or MC and exact loading. It offers state-of-the art technical and sonic performance just like the M6x ViNYL, but at a cheaper entry level to the epitome of the true spirit of high-end audio. Design Philosophy The M3x ViNYL has been switched, just like in its bigger brother the M6x ViNYL, to an entirely discrete circuitry, which results in better technical measurements and better sound. It is equipped with one single-ended input and output. But the important question is: what is so special about discrete circuits? Although it is Musical Fidelity’s lowest price amplifier, it embodies our hallmark values of uncoloured, stress-free sound, outstanding technical performance and great value for money. The Advantage of Discrete Circuits A discrete circuit is composed of electronic components which are disparate, individual devices, also called discrete components. These can be “passive” components, like resistors, capacitors and inductors, as well as “active” components, which in our case are transistors. The opposite to this would be an integrated circuit, which uses operational amplifiers (Op-Amps) in the signal chain. In our industry we employ specialised Op-Amps built for audio applications, which allow us to produce very small and efficient electronics, as well as saving the time of design engineers. However, countless hours of listening tests and years of experience have shown us that even the very best Op-Amps do not tend to be so neutral, natural, dynamic or vivid – all of which are characteristics of the Musical Fidelity “sound”. For that reason, we’re rediscovering our passion for traditional, discrete designs. Where standard phono pre-amplifiers with integrated circuits have a few tens or hundreds of components, discrete designs will employ hundreds or thousands of components by comparison. That makes for an extended design process, but in our opinion results in the best sound for your money. Toroidal Power Transformer The special audio transformer with low core saturation decreases the level of electromagnetic radiation, which is essential because otherwise any phono amplifier will never be able to work correctly. Together with the distance between transformer and amplification section and the electromagnetic shielding, we are creating an incredibly high signal to noise ratio. If we are working with the few hundreds of microvolts from a phono cartridge, everything is playing its role; every decibel of signal to noise ratio is crucially important. For the first time, we have implemented our new proprietary power supply solution that has zero standby power consumption. Absolutely zero! It is a super green product and we are sure, there isn’t any other product in existence with an ecological standby function like this. Split Passive EQ Many other phono stages are using a single equalization network in a global feedback loop. By means of an EQ network, the amplified signal from the output of the phono preamp is brought back to the input of the phono preamp. This is the before mentioned feedback loop, and the results, as you can imagine, are not in accordance with the high standards in Musical Fidelity design philosophy. The M3x ViNYL uses split passive equalization in separate amplification stages without global negative feedback loops for its RIAA curve. This is more costly to design and implement but ensures the most accurate representation of the ideal EQ curve. Split passive equalization allows for better impedance matching and lower deviation from the ideal RIAA curve. High-Tech Mechanical and Electrical Engineering - Hand Made in the EU M3x ViNYL has a steel chassis and a thick, heavy aluminium frontplate, which brings outstanding rigidity to the entire system and at the same time splendid isolation against outside interference. Key factor in keeping signal to noise ratios on the highest possible leveld is the huge distance between power transformer and amplifier section. The quality of the outside chassis finish, which is beyond beautiful, as well as the electronics inside - all wired by hand - is maintained by the highest manufacturing standards which we now achieve by fully switching the production to be entirely Made in the EU!

The LX2-LPS is Musical Fidelity&#39;s new baby. A high quality flexible MM/MC phono stage with adjustable impedance and excellent technical performance. Housed in beautifully detailed and handsome metalwork it is the epitome of understated high class elegance.We designed it for reference level listening so it is unerringly accurate and faithful to the input. Its purpose in life is to give you your music as its artists and producers intended: nothing more, and nothing less. The critical elements of a phono stage are: accurate RIAA, low noise, low distortion, and overload margin. Technical PerformanceMusical Fidelity&#39;s RIAA correction is famous for its predictable and consistent accuracy. The LX2-LPS accuracy is ±0.25dB 20Hz-20kHZ, also it extends to 45kHz so there is no overshoot ringing.This results in absolutely clear high frequencies with no intermodulation or other distracting anomalies.The noise ratio on both MM (better than 82dB) and MC (better than 72dB) is outstanding and virtually inaudible at any volume setting. That is unless you are a half deaf head-banger.But then I don&#39;t expect that MF&#39;s refinement and subtly would be quite your thing!The LX LPS distortion is vanishingly low, typically less than 0.007% across the audio band.Overload margin is exemplary. Simply put, it is virtually impossible for any real world cartridge to overload it.As we all know nothing is perfect, but the LX2-LPS gets very near. Technical Specifications:MMInput Impedance: 47 KΩInput Sensitivity: 3.0mVTotal Harmonic Distortion: 0.01%Signal to Noise Ratio: >80dBInput Overload Margin: 15dBMCInput Impedance: 100 ΩInput Sensitivity: 300μVTotal Harmonic Distortion: 0.01%Signal to Noise Ratio: >70dBInput Overload Margin: 22dBGeneralRIAA Response ±0.25dBPower Requirement 12-24V 100mA regulatedConnectionsMoving Magnet Input: 1pr RCA socketsMoving Magnet Loading: 1pr RCA socketsMoving Coil Input: 1pr RCA socketsMoving Coil Loading: 1pr RCA socketsPower Input: DC Jack (1.3mm inner pin, outer diam. 3.5mmDimensionsLength (including terminals) 197 mmWidth 172 mmHeight (including feet) 46.5 mmWeight(Unpacked / packed): 1.05 kg/ 1.50 kgIncluded accessoriesPower Supply

At Musical Fidelity we think of the M6si as being a destination product. The M6si offers such excellent performance, facilities and power that unless you are seeking the most exotic high-end sound quality you would never need another amplifier. We believe it’s that good.Internally, the M6si is configured as 2 independent monobloc power amps with a separate pre amp. It is, in fact, a pre amp with 2 monobloc power amps that just happen to share the same casework. The M6si has 220wpc. It has very low distortion, outstanding noise ratio and extremely flat frequency response. Its inputs are phono (MM/MC), 4 line level, 1 balanced XLR and 1 USB ‘B’ up to 24bit 96kHz asynchronous.The M6 combination of high power, high current and extraordinary stability means that it can drive any loudspeaker with ease.In use it is hard to hear any practical difference between the M6si and other much more expensive amplifiers. In proper blind listening comparisons, the M6si performs incredibly well. If we sound rather enthusiastic it’s because we are. Features:220WPCExcellent technical performanceAmazing load driving ability, unconditional stability will drive any loudspeakerWide range of useful inputs including asynchronous USB and switchable MM / MC PhonoPreamp outputInternally it is a separate preamp with two independent monobloc power amps; effectively a separates system in a boxExcellent, hunky build qualitySpecifications:Power output: 220 Watts per channel into 8 OhmsTHD (+ noise): 107dB ‘A’ - weightedFrequency Response: +0, –0.1dB, 10Hz to 20 kHz4x Line Level RCA1x Line Level XLR Balanced1x USB type ‘B’ connector - asynchronous data stream at up to 24-bit/96kHz1 x switchable phono inputSensitivity: 3mV nominal (MM), 0.4mV nominal (MC)Signal / noise ratio: >84dB ‘A’-weightedInput impedance: 47k Ohms (MM and MC)Frequency response: RIAA/IEC ±0.5dB 20Hz-20kHzDimensions - WxHxD (mm): 440 x 125 x 400Weight (unpacked / packed): 16.6 kg/ 21.3 kg
