Overview<\/h4>\n

The M6x ViNYL<\/strong> is a very high performance, highly accurate phono MM\/MC cartridge amplifier in a beautifully designed and executed case-work. We set out to make a phono stage without any practical limits. It\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

Design Philosophy<\/h4>\n

While updating from the M6 ViNYL<\/strong> to the M6x ViNYL<\/strong>, 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?<\/p>\n

The Advantage of Discrete Circuits<\/h4>\n

A discrete circuit is composed of electronic components which are disparate, individual devices, also called discrete components. These can be \u201cpassive\u201d components, like resistors, capacitors and inductors, as well as \u201cactive\u201d 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 specialized 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 \u2013 all of which are characteristics of the\u00a0Musical Fidelity<\/strong>\u00a0\u201csound\u201d. For that reason, we\u2019re 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.<\/p>\n

Musical Fidelity M6x Vinyl<\/strong> phono stage offers three different inputs for those who like to swap and change record players and\/or cartridges. All three inputs have flexibility of loading and gain that\u2019s only found on the top phono stages. This means the M6x<\/strong> can handle virtually any cartridge on the market today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":35884,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[768],"product_cat":[421],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-35882","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-musical-fidelity","7":"product_cat-phono-preamplifiers","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-variable"},"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/35882","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/35882\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":48800,"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/35882\/revisions\/48800"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35884"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35882"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=35882"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=35882"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/et\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=35882"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
