Musical Fidelity M5si Integrated Amplifier (Solid State) For sale is this wonderful Musical Fidelity M5si integrated amplifier. A hefty and well built amp, in excellent 'as new' condition, these have plenty of power and will drive just about anything. It is a current model with all specifications available on the Musical Fidelity website at https://www.musicalfidelity.com/products/m5series/m5si. It won't disappoint. Purchased new in June 2023 from Len Wallis Audio in Sydney. Will box it up in original packaging. This is quite a heavy amp, so pickup is preferred. Happy to consider
At A$1,950, this sits just under the A$1,988 median for recent comparable AUD listings and a touch above the A$1,838 25th percentile, so it reads as fair value rather than a bargain or an ambitious ask. The like_new condition helps at this price, and it’s close enough to the market that a buyer isn’t paying much of a premium for a cleaner example.
This is a well-regarded integrated because it does the basics properly: solid power, good drive, and a full-bodied, grown-up sound that suits a wide range of speakers. For a tidy, lightly used unit, the upside is getting near-new presentation without paying new-retail money, so it’s a sensible buy if you want an amplifier that can anchor a system for years.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Musical Fidelity, a British hi-fi icon, traces its roots to 1982 when clarinettist and audio enthusiast Antony Michaelson founded the company in London. Disillusioned with the sound quality of existing gear after his stint at predecessor Michaelson & Austin, he handcrafted his debut product—a minimalist preamplifier dubbed "The Preamp"—on his kitchen table. Paired with the quirky Dr. Thomas power amplifier, these designs disrupted the market with their bold aesthetics and sonic punch, establishing Michaelson’s experimental ethos from the outset.
The brand has long centered on amplifiers as its cornerstone, spanning integrated, power, phono, headphone, and preamp models renowned for Class-AB topology and innovative touches like Nuvistor tubes. It expanded into streaming players, DACs, CD players, Bluetooth receivers, all-in-one systems, and even headphones and turntables, always prioritizing musicality over convention. Unconventional industrial designs, from curved heatsinks to sculptural panels, became signatures, influencing competitors.
Positioned firmly in the high-end arena, Musical Fidelity commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its value-driven performance and soulful sound. Iconic models like the A1 and F-series endure as collector favorites, blending accessibility with premium engineering. Acquired by Austria’s Audio Tuning in 2018, it continues evolving under new stewardship while honoring its heritage as a boutique force in British hi-fi.
