Description
M6xi
Moving from M6si to M6xi, Musical Fidelity proudly introduces their M6xi, the newest high-end integrated amplifier in the acclaimed M6 line.
Building on the outstanding success of its predecessor, M6xi continues the same proven formula: massive power, uncompromising engineering, and true high-end sound, now enhanced with modern connectivity and refined internal design.
Enhanced Connectivity
Modern systems demand modern connectivity. The M6xi now features HDMI eARC, allowing effortless integration with TVs and home theatre systems while delivering true high-end stereo performance. Alongside this, new coaxial and optical digital inputs expand connectivity for a wide range of digital sources, complementing the already established high-resolution USB input.
A completely new feature is the high-quality isolated USB power output. Designed as a dedicated, ultra-clean power supply, it allows you to power modern USB streamers directly from the amplifier. The result is simple system integration and a noticeable upgrade in performance for your favourite streaming source.
For professional installations and advanced system control, the M6xi now includes RS232 integration, making it ideal for custom installations and sophisticated home audio systems.
Son Of TITAN
The M6xi 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. It features technology trickled down from the legendary MF 1kW TITAN power amp.
Internally, refinements push performance even further. The main transformer and power supply PCB are now encapsulated within a metal enclosure, dramatically reducing electromagnetic interference inside the chassis. This improvement benefits every circuit in the amplifier, but especially the newly refined phono stage.
The upgraded MM/MC phono section features improved shielding and circuit optimisation, delivering lower noise, lower distortion, and greater vinyl transparency than ever before.
Even the powerhouse amplifier stage has been slightly enhanced. With improved components and increased output capability, the M6xi delivers even greater authority and control over demanding loudspeakers, while preserving the effortless musicality that defines the Musical Fidelity sound.
The result is an amplifier that combines classic Musical Fidelity high-end amplifier design with modern versatility. The M6xi delivers true high-end performance in the proud Musical Fidelity tradition and makes it more accessible than anything else in its class.
