Connectivity is straightforward, consisting of an input and an output. These connections cannot be overloaded at the input or limited in the output driving capacity. The M3x ViNYL 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 an entry level price for high-end audio gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAlthough it is Musical Fidelity’s lowest price amplifier, the M3x ViNYL embodies the company’s hallmark values of uncolored, stress-free sound, outstanding technical performance, and exceptional value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDiscrete Circuity\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eLike its bigger brother the M6x ViNYL, the M3x ViNYL uses entirely discrete circuitry, which results in better technical measurements and better sound. You may be wondering, what is so special about discrete circuits?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA 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. They can also be active components, like transistors. The opposite approach is an integrated circuit, which uses operational amplifiers (Op-Amps) in the signal chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIn the hi-fi industry, manufacturers employ specialized Op-Amps built for audio applications, which allow them 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 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhile 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 it can result in the best sound for your money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eToroidal Power Transformer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhen 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. Musical Fidelity’s special audiophile toroidal transformer with low core saturation decreases the level of electromagnetic radiation, which is essential because otherwise any phono amplifier would never be able to work correctly. A key factor in keeping signal to noise ratios on the highest possible levels is the huge distance between power transformer and amplifier section. Together with the physical distance that’s maintained between the M3x ViNYL’s transformer and the amplification section, plus the electromagnetic shielding, Musical Fidelity has created an incredibly high signal to noise ratio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eFor the first time, in the M3x ViNYL Musical Fidelity is using its new proprietary power supply solution that has zero standby power consumption. Absolutely zero! It is a super green product, and there probably isn’t another product in existence with an ecological standby function like this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSplit Passive EQ\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eMany phono stages use a single equalization network in a 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. The results 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 feedback loops for both of its RIAA and DECCA curves. This is more costly to design and implement, but it 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 or DECCA curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHigh-Tech Mechanical and Electrical Engineering - Handmade in the EU\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe M3x ViNYL has a steel chassis and a thick, heavy aluminum frontplate, which brings outstanding rigidity to the entire system and at the same time offers splendid isolation from outside interference.

Going all the way back, the M6x DAC is the proud successor to the Digilog model that started it all way back in 1988. The M6x's immediate predecessor, the M6s DAC was one of the first to use the critically acclaimed ESS 32-bit HyperStream II DAC architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWith the M6sR DAC, Musical Fidelity continued to improve the firmware and added a few other quality of life improvements. DSD was now easier to use, it had full Roon Support and inputs and outputs were updated to keep up with the fast moving digital audio landscape. And the M6sR DAC was now being made in the EU!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eBuilding on knowledge and experience with Sabre ESS chips, Musical Fidelity upgraded them to the newer ES9038Q2M, and now use two of them in dual differential mode for a pristine dual mono design. The inclusion of a Time Domain Jitter Eliminator results in superb SNR and THD+N performance with unbelievably detailed transient response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eOther advances in the DAC section include upsampling and re-clocking. Upsampling can independently be switched on or off. The 16-core XMOS and CPLD MAX II Altera processors ensure there is always enough headroom for these operations, the new digital filters and the MQA processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe USB Class 2.0 input takes PCM sample rates up to 768 kHz and 32 bit.

Three key features make current-feedback amplifiers outstanding for audio. The high slew rate prevents odd order distortion anomalies. Current-on-demand at the output enables the amplifier to respond quickly and linearly; when large amounts of output power are suddenly needed, the amplifier can respond extremely quickly without raising the noise floor of the system and degrading the signal-to-noise ratio. Gain-independent frequency response allows the full bandwidth of the amplifier to be used over a wide range of volume settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMechanically Sound, Too!\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWith close attention paid to every aspect of the M6x DAC, the mechanical construction is uncompromisingly rigid and solid in typical Musical Fidelity tradition. Front panel and side panels are milled from extruded aluminum profiles.

What he felt was needed was the addition of extra input facilities and, if possible, an all around improvement of technical performance. \"By the way, despite endless component price rises during the M6i's life, we didn't alter its selling price. This made our final requirement even harder,\" reports Antony. \"The M6si should not be significantly more expensive than the outgoing model.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTwo Completely Separate Internal Monoblock Amps\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIn designing the M6si, the engineers decided to use Musical Fidelity's exclusive SMD Surface Mount Design layout techniques. This reduced the size of the circuit's footprint and allowed greatly increased flexibility with the internal layout. Consequently, the M6si is configured as a preamp with two completely separate and independent monoblock power amps. In other words, the M6si is a proper preamp with its own separate regulated power supply and discrete monoblock power amps sharing same casework This is a big change from the outgoing M6i.

However, countless hours of listening tests and years of experience have shown that even the very best ICs do not tend to be so neutral, natural, dynamic or vivid – all of which are characteristics of the Musical Fidelity \"sound.\" They are also difficult - if not impossible - to repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhere standard phono preamplifiers 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 Musical Fidelity's opinion, it results in the best sound for your money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFully Balanced Design\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA fully balanced design, as used in the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2, consists of a hot and a cold (also called + and -) signal. Both the + and – signal chains effectively carry the same musical information. A true balanced amplifier can extract the final musical information out the +\/- signals and subtract all noise that could potentially be added along the transmission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA \"pseudo-balanced\" amplifier will not process the + and – signals independently. It adds them together before they are processed. Pseudo-balanced design will not benefit from the advantages that balanced connections have to offer, like fully balanced amplifiers do. In a true, fully balanced device, the + and – sections of both the left and right channel are treated individually, which doubles the amplifier sections by two as a result. You need twice as much space on the circuit board, twice as many electrical components, and you need to be twice as careful with planning your circuit board layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAs a result, the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 excels at suppressing unwanted noise, errors and interferences and offers the best signal to noise ratio possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eExtreme Cartridge Loading Options\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eEach of the Vinyl 2's single-ended RCA or balanced XLR inputs can be individually set for either MM\/MC and loading. Each input also then remembers its own settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eVery large ranges from 40dB (voltage amplification by 100x) up to 69dB (voltage amplification by 3690x) are possible. The gain is cleanly switched using signal relays, and yhe big increase in amplification is why a phono preamp must be incredibly silent (a fully balanced design makes a big difference here) to handle amplification levels this high. Input capacitance and impedance are switched by using JFET transistors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA costly, yet technically extremely sophisticated implementation, it allows the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 to be matched with any cartridges and perfectly integrated it into the rest of a hi-fi system. By that criteria the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 is perfect. It has no practical audible noise even at the highest levels of amplification. It doesn't really have distortion. You cannot overload its input or output, and you can load your cartridge perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNo-Compromise Power Supply\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 displays Musical Fidelity's continued development of its Super Silent Power Transformers. Industrial grade power sockets with EMI filter and DC blocker stop interferences and eliminate transformer hum. The encapsulated toroidal transformer is purpose designed for delicate phono signals with low core saturation and extremely low electromagnetic radiation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eEach discrete amp stage has a DC servo ensuring optimal DC mode. The preamplifier is powered by two high-quality symmetrical low-noise power supplies, one for each channel. All the fully balanced Nuvistor PSUs are passively filtered and regulated.

The Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 is basically immune against the effects of vibration from the environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe same can be said about electromagnetic immunity. The massive aluminum case acts as a Faraday cage. It protects the incredibly sensitive phono stage internals against outer electromagnetic fields.

The brilliant Nuvistor tube never really went anywhere in audio. Until the early 1990‘s when Antony Michaelson and his small company named Musical Fidelity - back then located to the west of London in an artisan hamlet named Wembley - started making amplifiers with Nuvistors.

The M6si enhances your listening experience by providing more inputs and completely new internal circuitry to offer greatly improved technical and sonic performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eDespite its highly affordable price tag, the M6si provides true high-end sound quality. Because of the considerable amount of power on tap (220-watts-per-channel at 8 ohms), the sonics are effortless and unstressed. Its stability margins are huge, so it will drive any loudspeaker easily. But this is only the beginning of what the M6si really does, which is sounding fantastically musical. Because of its preamp\/power amp configuration it produces wide, stable images with an effortless, clear, un-grainy sound quality. The bottom end is delivered with a vast punch and speed of attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eA Tough Act to Follow\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe M6i was a tough act to follow. \"We felt that the original M6i's package size, power and price were spot on,\" says Musical Fidelity Founder and CEO Antony Michaelson. What he felt was needed was the addition of extra input facilities and, if possible, an all around improvement of technical performance. \"By the way, despite endless component price rises during the M6i's life, we didn't alter its selling price. This made our final requirement even harder,\" reports Antony. \"The M6si should not be significantly more expensive than the outgoing model.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTwo Completely Separate Internal Monoblock Amps\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIn designing the M6si, the engineers decided to use Musical Fidelity's exclusive SMD Surface Mount Design layout techniques. This reduced the size of the circuit's footprint and allowed greatly increased flexibility with the internal layout. Consequently, the M6si is configured as a preamp with two completely separate and independent monoblock power amps. In other words, the M6si is a proper preamp with its own separate regulated power supply and discrete monoblock power amps sharing same casework This is a big change from the outgoing M6i. The M6si's technical performance is a significant advance on the old model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eImmaculate Performance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe M6si performs immaculately. There is no other way to put it. Because of its preamp + two monoblocks power amp configuration, both channels perform virtually identically, which is exactly what you would expect from a preamp with separate power amps but \u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e what you would expect from a normal integrated amplifier. The makes the M6si unique compared to other integrateds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eDistortion is very low at less than 0.005%. More tellingly, HF distortion is incredibly low. The vast majority of amplifiers suffer huge increases in distortion as you go up in frequency. The M6si's meticulous PCB and circuit design means that HF performance is virtually identical to the LF performance. This is significant for sound quality. Thus, at 10 kHz distortion is only about 0.006% and at 20 kHz it measures an astonishingly low 0.007%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eChannel separation is remarkable, and remarkably consistent, too. Most amplifiers (integrated or pre\/power) have dramatically worsening crosstalk as the frequency increases. The M6si's crosstalk is outstanding. Even at 20 kHz, it is better than 82dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eImpressive Onboard Phono Stage\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe M6si's onboard phono stage is also special, starting with its MC moving coil and MM moving magnet compatibility. It boasts a very accurate RIAA, within ± 0.5dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Also it maintains its accuracy right out to 50 kHz. The MM noise ratio is an outstanding 93dB down, while even more amazingly the MC stage is about 87dB down. The phono stage distortion is a very low 0.01%. All in all the M6si's, phono stage is exceptional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e24-bit\/96 kHz Asynchronous USB Input\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe 24-bit\/96 kHz asynchronous USB input uses exactly the same circuitry and technology as Musical Fidelity's highly regarded V-Link and other top quality computer interfaces. Jitter is virtually eliminated. Noise is incredibly low and distortion is virtually nonexistent. The M6si's USB input is capable of eking out the finest details from the computer source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe M6si also has a home theater bypass for easy integration into your theater system, preamp output jacks, and 12-volt trigger inputs and outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAt the end of it all, the M6si offers true high-end sound quality, an extensive range of useful inputs, a compact package, reliability, and a highly affordable price for the level of build and performance that it delivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Masterful M6 Series\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eMusical Fidelity designed the M6 series to be the high-quality heart of your home entertainment, combining power, performance and future-proof features into beautifully built components that will delight for years to come.

The electricity coming out of your wall socket isn’t always as clean and stable as you might expect. Modern homes are full of devices — LED lights, phone chargers, Wi-Fi routers, smart-home gadgets — that dump electrical noise back into your wiring. That noise can sneak into your audio components and affect how they sound and how long they last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA power conditioner cleans up that electricity before it reaches your gear. The Musical Fidelity X-Power does this while also protecting your components from sudden voltage spikes (like those caused by lightning or power-grid fluctuations) and blocking a common problem called DC offset that can make transformers inside your equipment hum or buzz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThree Layers Of Protection In One Compact Unit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes the X-Power stand out is that it combines three separate functions into a single, affordable device. According to Musical Fidelity, finding all three in one product at this price point is genuinely uncommon. Here’s what each layer does for you:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSurge \u0026amp; Overvoltage Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e — The X-Power uses a two-stage protection design. One protection circuit sits at the input and another at the output, so your equipment is shielded at both ends. If a voltage spike hits your power line — from a lightning strike, a utility-grid fluctuation, or a sudden load change — the X-Power diverts that excess energy away from your connected gear. Think of it as an insurance policy for your amplifier, DAC, and turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEMI\/RFI Filtering\u003c\/strong\u003e — EMI (electromagnetic interference) and RFI (radio-frequency interference) are types of electrical noise that travel along your power lines and can affect sensitive audio circuits. The X-Power uses a custom-built filter with dual common-mode chokes and specialized capacitors to suppress this interference. According to Musical Fidelity, the filter achieves greater than 60 dB of noise reduction at 100 kHz and more than 80 dB at 1 MHz — numbers that represent very serious noise suppression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDC Blocking\u003c\/strong\u003e — DC offset is a sneaky problem. It’s a small amount of unwanted direct-current voltage that rides along on your AC power line. Even a tiny bit of DC offset can push the transformer inside an amplifier or CD player into “saturation,” which causes audible mechanical humming and reduces the transformer’s efficiency. The X-Power’s DC blocker uses a carefully designed network of diodes and capacitors to strip out DC components (up to 2V) while letting the AC power pass through cleanly. If you’ve ever heard a faint buzz or hum from your amplifier that doesn’t go away no matter what you do, DC offset could be the culprit — and this is designed to fix it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVersatile Enough For Sources And Amplifiers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe X-Power is rated at 10A, which means it can handle up to approximately 1,100 watts in 110V regions (like the U.S.). That’s plenty for most audio setups. For source components like CD players, DACs, streamers, and phono stages — which typically draw only 20–40 watts each — you can connect the X-Power to a high-quality, unfiltered power strip and run several sources from one unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also has enough headroom for integrated amplifiers and power amplifiers. Musical Fidelity recommends connecting one amplifier per X-Power for the best results. For Class AB stereo amplifiers, they suggest it can comfortably handle amps up to around 700 watts. For Class A designs, it’s rated for stereo amps up to roughly 2 × 550W, and for tube amplifiers, up to about 2 × 200W.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne important tip from Musical Fidelity: they recommend keeping your digital sources (streamers, CD players, DACs) and analog sources (turntables, phono preamps) on separate X-Power units. Mixing digital and analog gear on the same conditioned line can potentially allow interference between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Return Of An Iconic Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re a long-time audio enthusiast, you might recognize the X-Power’s distinctive cylindrical shape. Musical Fidelity’s original X-Series from the late 1990s used this same “X-profile” design, and it became one of the most recognizable shapes in hi-fi. The X-Power revives that heritage with modern engineering inside a one-piece extruded aluminum chassis. Beyond looking great, the aluminum body serves a functional purpose: it provides excellent shielding against electromagnetic interference. A brushed aluminum faceplate on the front completes the look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt just 108 × 105 × 274 mm and only 2.29 kg (about 5 lbs), the X-Power is compact enough to sit unobtrusively in a rack or alongside your existing components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho Is This For?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You own a quality audio system and want to protect it from power surges and electrical noise without spending a fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You’ve noticed a faint hum or buzz from your amplifier or power supply and suspect your home’s electrical supply might be the cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You live in an area with unreliable power, frequent storms, or known electrical noise from nearby appliances or industrial equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You want a single device that handles surge protection, EMI\/RFI filtering, and DC blocking instead of buying three separate products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2714.svg\" alt=\"✔️\" width=\"15\"\u003e You’re building or expanding a Musical Fidelity X-Series system and want a matching power conditioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat’s In The Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMusical Fidelity X-Power Power Conditioner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIEC power cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilding your system?

Your home’s power can carry electrical noise from other devices (Wi-Fi routers, LED bulbs, chargers), voltage spikes, and unwanted DC voltage. A conditioner filters out that noise and protects your equipment from power surges. The X-Power combines all three functions — surge protection, noise filtering, and DC blocking — in a single unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill The X-Power Make My System Sound Better?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe impact of power conditioning varies from system to system and depends on the quality of your home’s electrical supply. Some listeners notice immediately reduced hum and a quieter noise floor. Others may find the benefit is more about long-term equipment protection than a dramatic sonic change. The X-Power is designed first and foremost to provide cleaner, more stable power — which gives your components the best possible environment to perform as they were designed to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I Plug Multiple Components Into One X-Power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The X-Power has a single outlet, but you can connect it to a high-quality, \u003cem\u003eunfiltered\u003c\/em\u003e power strip and then plug multiple source components into that strip. Source devices like DACs, streamers, CD players, and phono preamps typically draw only 20–40 watts each, so the X-Power can comfortably handle six or more at once. Just make sure the power strip doesn’t have its own built-in filtering, which could conflict with the X-Power’s circuitry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I Use One X-Power For My Whole System, Or Separate Units For Sources And Amplification?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMusical Fidelity recommends dedicating one X-Power per amplifier and a separate X-Power for your source components. They also suggest keeping digital devices (streamers, CD players, DACs) and analog devices (turntables, phono preamps) on separate conditioned lines. For a typical two-channel setup with one integrated amp and a few sources, two X-Power units would be ideal — one for the amp and one for your sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs The X-Power Powerful Enough For My Amplifier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn most cases, yes. At 110V (North America), the X-Power can deliver approximately 1,100 watts. Musical Fidelity provides guidelines: it can handle Class AB stereo amps up to around 700W, Class A stereo amps up to 2 × 550W, and tube amps up to 2 × 200W. Keep in mind that Class AB amplifiers draw power proportional to listening level, so in normal use, they draw much less than their peak rating. If you’re unsure about your specific amplifier, give us a call and we’ll help you figure it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow Does The X-Power Compare To The Musical Fidelity BPC3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BPC3 is Musical Fidelity’s larger balanced power conditioner. It uses a toroidal transformer with two isolated 300VA output zones and four outlets — designed to power multiple components with complete zone isolation between them. The X-Power is a smaller, simpler, and more affordable single-outlet conditioner with passive filtering (no transformer). If you need multiple isolated outlet zones or have a complex system, the BPC3 is the step up. If you want straightforward, high-quality power conditioning for one amplifier or a group of source components, the X-Power is a great fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Kind Of Power Cable Should I Use With The X-Power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe X-Power uses a standard IEC C14 inlet, which is the same type of detachable power cable used by most audio components. It comes with a power cable in the box, but if you’d like to use a higher-quality aftermarket power cable, any standard IEC cable rated for 10A will work.

Musical Fidelity also offers Schuko (European), UK, and Australian outlet variants for other markets. If you need to verify the specific outlet type for your order, please contact us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan The X-Power Help With Transformer Hum?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePossibly, yes. Transformer hum in amplifiers is often caused by DC offset on the AC power line. Even a small amount of DC voltage can cause a transformer’s core to saturate, resulting in an audible buzz or vibration. The X-Power’s integrated DC blocker is specifically designed to remove DC offset up to 2V, which can reduce or eliminate this type of hum. If your transformer hum is caused by a mechanical issue inside the component itself, a DC blocker won’t solve it — but for DC-offset-related hum, the X-Power is designed to help.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Audio Advisor?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ec-titlebox-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f3b5.svg\" alt=\"music note emoji\" width=\"20\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e40+ Years of Expertise\u003c\/strong\u003e — Since 1981, we’ve helped over a million music lovers find the right gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f504.svg\" alt=\"repeat emoji\" width=\"20\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e60-Day Money-Back Guarantee\u003c\/strong\u003e — Take your time.

The Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 uses the same display technology and redesigned front panel as all other recent Nu-Vista additions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Advantage of Discrete Circuits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA 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 like transistors. The opposite to this would be an integrated circuit (IC = chip), which can, for example, be used as an operational amplifier (Op-Amp) in the signal chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eMusical Fidelity typically uses specialized IC Op-Amps built for audio applications, which allow them 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 that even the very best ICs do not tend to be so neutral, natural, dynamic or vivid – all of which are characteristics of the Musical Fidelity \"sound.\" They are also difficult - if not impossible - to repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhere standard phono preamplifiers 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 Musical Fidelity's opinion, it results in the best sound for your money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFully Balanced Design\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA fully balanced design, as used in the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2, consists of a hot and a cold (also called + and -) signal. Both the + and – signal chains effectively carry the same musical information. A true balanced amplifier can extract the final musical information out the +\/- signals and subtract all noise that could potentially be added along the transmission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA \"pseudo-balanced\" amplifier will not process the + and – signals independently. It adds them together before they are processed. Pseudo-balanced design will not benefit from the advantages that balanced connections have to offer, like fully balanced amplifiers do. In a true, fully balanced device, the + and – sections of both the left and right channel are treated individually, which doubles the amplifier sections by two as a result. You need twice as much space on the circuit board, twice as many electrical components, and you need to be twice as careful with planning your circuit board layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAs a result, the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 excels at suppressing unwanted noise, errors and interferences and offers the best signal to noise ratio possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eExtreme Cartridge Loading Options\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eEach of the Vinyl 2's single-ended RCA or balanced XLR inputs can be individually set for either MM\/MC and loading. Each input also then remembers its own settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eVery large ranges from 40dB (voltage amplification by 100x) up to 69dB (voltage amplification by 3690x) are possible. The gain is cleanly switched using signal relays, and yhe big increase in amplification is why a phono preamp must be incredibly silent (a fully balanced design makes a big difference here) to handle amplification levels this high. Input capacitance and impedance are switched by using JFET transistors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA costly, yet technically extremely sophisticated implementation, it allows the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 to be matched with any cartridges and perfectly integrated it into the rest of a hi-fi system.

You cannot overload its input or output, and you can load your cartridge perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNo-Compromise Power Supply\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 displays Musical Fidelity's continued development of its Super Silent Power Transformers.

The brilliant Nuvistor tube never really went anywhere in audio. Until the early 1990‘s when Antony Michaelson and his small company named Musical Fidelity - back then located to the west of London in an artisan hamlet named Wembley - started making amplifiers with Nuvistors. They were made in limited editions and sold out almost immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eTo this day these icons of audio individualism are still highly valued. Now, after Musical Fidelity has been passed on to new ownership, the company's vision is to continue making history.

There the matter rested until about fifteen years ago, when Musical Fidelity created the first of its ground-breaking Nu-Vista series. These legendary, limited-edition products sold out in a matter of months.
