REVIEW & AWARDS

Musical Fidelity M3sCD CD Player Review - Read More

"So it's perfect, right – and there's no point in spending any more on a CD player? Err no, not quite. Listen to a dCS Rossini (via its built-in disc transport) for example, and you'll realise that the M3sCD is but a pale shadow of what's possible from a cost-no-object silver disc spinner. It doesn't have the translucent sound of the ultra high-end machine, nor is there a spine-tingling sense of rhythmic drive or the visceral feel of vast tracts of bass powering out at you.

Yet still, the M3sCD more closely resembles a high-end CD player that's shrunk in the wash, than a cheap machine in an expensive suit. It sounds far better than it has a right to be at the price, with no obvious failings whatsoever. Don't be dissuaded by the fact that Musical Fidelity isn't especially renowned for Compact Disc, then. This is a great machine and to my ears the class-of-the-field at this price point right now." - David Price
