Musical Fidelity M6i Integrated Amplifier

September 15, 2010

Ron Doering has posted a review of the Musical Fidelity M6i integrated amplifier ($2995) at Good Sound, part of the Soundstage! Network. His conclusions:

Going into this review, I was a little prejudiced against the M6i for its lack of what I’d thought were such basic necessities as a balance control, a headphone jack, a mono switch (yeah, right!), an iPod interface, etc. But here’s the deal: If it takes paring down to get this astonishing level of performance, well then, I’ll just have to live with it. Musical Fidelity and Antony Michaelson promised — and have delivered — an amplifier based on the design brief that less is more (except, of course, in the area of power). Michaelson does not strike me as dogmatic. He uses tubes, when and where appropriate. He builds amps of very high and low powers. He does what he must in service to the sound.
