Musical Fidelity M6s pre Pre Amplifier Selling my Musical fidelity pre amp , which around 15 months . In excellent condition and has not been used in the last 4 months as I am now using a DEQX. Has both balanced and unbalanced outputs with low output impedance. The amp preformed fantastic with my active ATCs I still have the original box, remote, manual etc. Condition: As New / Mint Payment Method: Cash, EFT Region/State: (WA) Western Australia/Australia By hellzigha 0 Comments AUD $2,100 Date: January 17, 20251 yr
Like-new condition helps here, because at A$2,100 this sits below the recent used-market median of A$2,281 and also under the 25th percentile at A$2,207. That makes it a strong deal rather than just a fair ask, especially for a preamp that’s only modestly discounted from the local typical spread.
This series is well regarded for a clean, full-bodied presentation with good drive and low-fuss usability, so a tidy example is exactly the sort of thing worth grabbing. At this price, the main upside is simple: you’re getting an established high-end control amp in near-new condition without paying top-of-market money, so if the remote, packaging, and inputs are all intact, it looks like a very sensible buy.
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.
