The basis for the Musical Fidelity M3X VINYL phono corrector was its older brother M6x. There are also no operational amplifiers in the M3x, everything is built on a discrete circuit. The manufacturer positions the M3x Vinyl as a relatively inexpensive solution, but still high-end.
Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 is distinguished by the use of miniature vacuum tubes in the circuit. However, in this case they are used only in the output stage, the correction circuits are made on transistors, while three curves are supported – the classic RIAA, as well as the historical DECCA and Columbia.
The Musical Fidelity M8x Vinyl is made in a fully balanced circuit with discrete components. It uses a printed circuit board three times larger, on which there are placed twice as many discrete components. The amplification path now has a three-stage design, offering more gain with significantly less noise. The phonopreamplifier level now varies from 40 to 69 dB, which is suitable for a variety of cartridges, providing the necessary flexibility even when mating with complex cartridges.
