Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista DAC vollsymmetrischer DA-Wandler mit Nuvistoren und 7 Eingängen, DSD bis 512, PCM bis 768 kHz, MQA. Auf alle Geräte der Nu-Vista-Serie erhalten Sie 5 Jahre Herstellergarantie.
Der Nu-Vista DAC ist unser neues Flaggschiff unter den DACs und basiert auf der von Kritikern hochgelobten ESS 32-Bit HyperStream II DAC-Architektur. Der Nu-Vista DAC enthält unsere berühmte Nuvistor-Schaltung, wobei jeder Kanal über eine vollständig symmetrische Stufe mit Nuvistor 7586 Triodenröhren verfügt, die in einen diskreten Class-A-Verstärkerpuffer eingebunden sind. Er verfügt über RCA- und XLR-Ausgänge, 3 optische und 1 koaxialen SPDIF-Eingang, 1 USB- und 1 AES/EBU-Eingang. Ein I2S-Eingang ist ebenfalls vorhanden, für einen zukünftigen, noch anzukündigenden Nu-Vista CD-Spieler.
Against recent EU asking prices for comparable Musical Fidelity DAC listings, €6,999 is firmly above the typical range: far over the €374 median and well past the €1,623 75th percentile, so this reads as an ambitious ask rather than market-clearing value. Even allowing for exceptional condition, it is priced like a premium collectible, not a normal used buy.
That said, the Nu-Vista line has a real following for its big, smooth, highly resolved presentation and the cachet of Musical Fidelity’s valve-buffered design. If the unit is complete, truly immaculate, and includes the right extras, the appeal is obvious—but at this figure the buyer should be paying for rarity and presentation as much as performance.
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.
