Musical Fidelity has announced the launch of the Nu-Vista 600.2, a significant upgrade and rework of its predecessor, the Nu-Vista 800.2. Simon Quarry, the Chief of Design, has played a pivotal role in refining this new amplifier, enhancing its sound quality while delivering immense power and transparency.
Advanced Design Features
The updated Nu-Vista 600.2 incorporates the full TITAN power amplifier design, featuring a locally decoupled output stage that sets it apart from the original model. The printed circuit board (PCB) layout has undergone a comprehensive redesign, resulting in improved performance. Additionally, the electrical components have been upgraded, with the 600.2 now utilizing the same laser-trimmed volume control found in the 800.2. The power supply section has also seen significant enhancements.
Commitment to Analog Excellence
The Nu-Vista 600.2 represents Musical Fidelity’s latest commitment to analog, discrete, dual mono amplifiers. It boasts oversized toroidal transformers, multi-array power supplies, and meticulous filtering in both the pre- and power sections. At the heart of this amplifier is a remarkable Class-A tube stage that features the highly regarded, and increasingly rare, nuvistor tubes.
Aesthetic Appeal
Beyond its impressive technical specifications, the Nu-Vista 600.2 is designed with aesthetics in mind. Its robust mechanics, exquisite casework, and classic display with VU meters not only promise superior sound performance but also provide a tactile experience of true luxury.
A Labor of Love
This latest release is a labor of love for the team at Musical Fidelity, reflecting their enduring passion for nuvistor technology. The company hopes that audiophiles will find as much joy in listening to the Nu-Vista 600.2 as they experienced during its creation. As Musical Fidelity continues to push the boundaries of audio excellence, the Nu-Vista 600.2 stands as a testament to their dedication to high-quality sound.
