Description
Nu-Vista PRE
Nu-Vista PRE uses a balanced configuration circuit and balanced precision matched stepped attenuator for volume control. This means even at low volume levels, as well as higher, stereo imaging will be precise and accurate.
For driving strength, a pair of mini power amplifiers (equivalent to 50 W) are used for the output stages. They run in Class A for preamp purposes, giving the best in-line driving capability, dynamic range, as well as reduced noise and distortion inherently. Supply capacitance is generous, and chokes are added for further improved supply ripple and pulse current spike reduction.
The Nu-Vista PRE‘s mechanical construction is uncompromisingly rigid and solid in typical Musical Fidelity tradition. Front panel and side panels are milled from extruded aluminium profiles and are extremely massive.
Dedicated Nu-Vista PRE PSU
The Nu-Vista PRE comes with its own dedicated external power supply.
To achieve better noise performance, MF removed the AC mains power supply from the main unit and built it into another matching box. In this box they took advantage of the extra space to set up inbuilt mains and output filtering. This quietens up the supplies and results in almost no mains-borne artefacts getting into the sensitive audio circuitry.
The separate PSU houses all the transformers, which by nature generate mechanical vibrations and radiate harmful electromagnetic fields. Here they are as far away as possible from the critical amplifier circuits. This significantly contributes to great signal to noise ratio. The Nu-Vista PRE is basically immune against the effects of vibration from the environment.
The same can be said about electro magnetic immunity. The massive aluminium case acts as a Faraday cage. It protects the internals against outer electromagnetic fields, and in the same way, the rest of your hi-fi gear against electromagnetic fields generated by the Nu-Vista PRE & PRE PSU.
Nu-Vista Remote
Also included is the Nu-Vista remote control which is a solid Nu-Vista style re-imagination of usual remote controls. Machined from solid, it has the same feel as the front panel of the PRE unit, has a powerful beam, and runs off easily replaceable AAA Batteries.
