M6x Vinyl - Phono Stage

The M6x Vinyl is a revised M6 Vinyl now with balanced input and fully discrete circuit board design!.

The M6x ViNYL is a very high performance, highly accurate phono MM/MC cartridge amplifier in a beautifully designed and executed casework. We set out to make a phono stage without any practical limits. It’s designed in such a way to ensure you cannot overload the input stage or encounter any practical limitations in the output driving capacity during regular use, whether running single-ended or balanced. It has three inputs, and each can be individually set for either MM/ MC and loading. Each input also then remembers its own settings. It offers state-of-the art technical and sonic performance at a very competitive price and is the epitome of the true spirit of high-end audio.

 


Design Philosophy

While updating from the M6 ViNYL to the M6x ViNYL, we have switched to an entirely discrete circuitry, which results in better technical measurements and better sound. It is equipped with one balanced input and output as well as two single-ended inputs and one single-ended output to fit well into any vinyl hi-fi system. But the important question is: what is so special about discrete circuits

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. The unit features three separate, independently selectable cartridge inputs. This allows choice between three different turntables, or multiple tone arm configurations if required. Selectable gain is provided to allow for different cartridge sensitivities and ton suit any equipment. Cartridge type and loading is selected by front selector buttons for optimum cartridge performance.

 

Making Way For Pure Music

The true point of any electronic, actually any audio component, is that you don‘t know it is there. You completely forget its existance. By that criteria the M6x Vinyl is almost perfect. It has no practical audible noise, it doesn‘t really have distortion, you cannot overload its input or output, you can load your cartridge perfectly. It exists to serve the music. To bring the artists intent, emotions and passion to your ears and heart.

REVIEW & AWARDS

M6x Phono Amplifier from Musical Fidelity - Read More

"While I might be rather grumpy when considering the interface, I did love the expansive nature of the feature set and the overall sound of the Musical Fidelity M6x. In single-ended mode, moving magnet offered the best performance while moving coil was fine. It was good without being great. Perfectly usable, though, especially for those who like the solid state sound.

For me though, if you go moving coil via the M6x, make sure that you hook up a balanced output to your amp. In this mode, the M6x sounded absolutely sublime. A sheer audio delight and well worth the price tag.

 

Musical Fidelity M6x ViNYL Phono Stage Review - Read More

"Overall, this is an excellent phono stage for the money and treads a path between high-end sound, versatility and user convenience. It’s not quite top tier material, but is nowhere near the price of no-compromise design and still has two major pluses – its discrete transistor design and its connectivity. The super build, finish and fine styling all go without saying – so hear it if you can. " - David Price

"This multi-talented design offers a combination of excellent connectivity, versatile loading and gain options, a great user interface and excellent sound. I don’t know of other products anywhere near its price that do so much so well. It’s not the best phono stage that money can buy of course, but it sure is cracking value. " - Hi-Fi Choice

 

 

Musical Fidelity M6x Vinyl Phono Stage Reviewed - Read More

" The M6x vinyl is yet another exceptional product from Musical Fidelity. Beautifully designed and executed with a performance that under other brands would be considered superlative at well over 10 times the price. To me, musical fidelity embodies the true spirit of what high-end audio should be, and what it so often is not. Their products are well designed, well-executed and sold at a price that is reasonable given the components and technology inside. All to often audiophile components are built with astronomical profit margins a part of their design, and despite this many of them can’t come close to the quality of build or technical design that is to be found in current Musical Fidelity products, especially products like the M6x vinyl. That is why I use MF products myself, and that is why the M6x vinyl earns my unreserved recommendation."

 

Musical Fidelity M6x ViNYL – The new generation … - Read More

"Musical Fidelity describes the new Musical Fidelity M6x ViNYL as a very powerful, high-precision phono preamplifier, which, how could it be otherwise, is designed for both MM and MC pickup systems. The particularly exciting thing about this is that the Fidelity M6x ViNYL has three inputs at the same time, so you can actually connect three drives at the same time. Each input can be configured individually, so that the promised flexibility is guaranteed even for the most demanding vinyl lovers. In addition, the design is completely discrete.
