Looking back on Musical Fidelity’s history is like
flipping through the portfolio of a cutting-edge
stage or lighting designer. Its components often
establish the template others try to mimic not only
in sound but appearance. Akin to math professors,
TAP INTO THE POWER OF
VIRTUAL MONOBLOCK
POWER AMPLIFIERS
Musical Fidelity engineers confront problems by
considering all possible solutions before settling
on the best course of action. The approach pays
dividends in award-winning products that set
marks for style and quality.
MUSICAL FIDELITY M3si Integrated Amplifier
Think of M3si as the equivalent of moving from
undefined two-dimensional graphics to lifelike
three-dimensional renderings of everything
in your line of sight. Designed to consistently
supply wide, deep, and palpable images amidst
vast soundstages, this 90Wpc integrated counts
virtual monoblock power amplifiers with their
own separate power-supply capacitance, a
24-bit/96kHz asynchronous USB DAC, and a
formidable MM phonostage among its fierce
arsenal. You’ll hear music sound richer, clearer,
and more natural. Who doesn’t want that?

MUSICAL FIDELITY
Consider Luxman the high-end equivalent of
an appointment-only fine jeweler that obsesses
over quality and dedicates thousands of manhours to the most miniscule details. Such is the
Japanese company’s resolute dedication to ne
plus ultra sound. Luxman components are graced
with recherché refinement and inenarrable
realism. These luxurious integrated amplifiers and
preamplifiers are your private box seats to every
recorded musical event of your choosing.
LUXMAN L-505uX Integrated Amplifier
In continuous production and refined for more
than 30 years, L-505uX marries old-school
tradition (back-lit power meters) with cuttingedge technology (multiple proprietary features)
in a hand-built piece designed for the discerning
listener. Quieter, more liquid, detailed, and
nuanced than its acclaimed predecessor, the
L-505u, L-505uX exudes transparency. If rich
tones and alluring textures are what you seek,
look no further. Superior to comparable separates,
this opulent integrated throws three-dimensional
soundstages that place artists feet away.

M6500i Integrated Amplifier
Excuse us if we liken the titanicsounding M6500i to a soupedup V-twin engine. Internally a
separate preamplifier with two
independent monoblock power
amplifiers, M6500i touts 500Wpc
specs, borderline-indestructible
construction, and technical
performance that bring to mind hotrod performance and thrill-seeking
fun. The best part? M6500i costs
far less than a modded bike. So go
ahead. Turn it up and go to town.

L-550AX Integrated Amplifier
L-550AX delivers a sound so
realistic, it’s difficult to hear the
difference between reproduction
and live events. What Class-A
output stages excel at—midrange
liquidity, low-level detail,
stupendous dynamics—you get
here in spades. An onboard MM/MC
phonostage, headphone amplifier,
and bypassable tone controls come
standard. This is what prized audio
heritage is all about.
