Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista 600 Amplifier

Musical Fidelity have recently unveiled the latest addition to the Nu-Vista line up, the Nu-Vista 600 Amplifier.

Retailing for £4999 the new NuVista 600 combines technology from several different eras of electronics design.

a) Nuvistor technology

b) Semi conductor technology

c) Surface Mount Design technology

d) CAD/CAM PCB design

e) Software control

The NuVista 600 combines nuvistor technology with Surface Mount Design and CAD/CAM PCB concepts. Essentially the NuVista 600 is the same as its older brother, NuVista 800, but with less elaborate metalwork and 'only' 200WPC. Like the 800 the Nu Vista 600 has extraordinary technical and sonic performance.

The NuVista 600 integrated offers full-on, high-end performance, in a beautiful, relatively compact package, and gives a comfortable 200 watts per channel.

The NuVista 600‰Ûªs front end is positioned on the same PCB as the input circuitry. This keeps all PCB tracks as short as possible, and ensures that this highly sensitive function is at right angles to any stray hysteresis field from the transformers, ensuring superlative sonic performance.

The nuvista stage itself combines nuvista tubes with Musical Fidelity's exclusive Surface Mount Design and technology systems. This allows them to perform at a level never seen before.

The power amp stage is derived from the monster Titan amp, regarded by many as one of the best amplifiers ever made. However, subtle improvements to the circuit have been made, squeezing even more performance from what was already a legendary circuit design.

The overall configuration is dual mono, with a separate 1 kW super silent drive mains transformer per channel.

The result? Maximum performance from every part of the circuit which clearly shows just how much of a labour of love and passion for the NuVista 600 was for us.
