Offered is „MX-DAC B-Ware“ by Musical Fidelity from the category „D/A Converter“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9902809718 ends on 02.11.2026 at 10:19 o'clock.
Against the recent EUR comps, €499 sits above the €429 75th percentile, so this is an ambitious ask rather than a bargain. It is not outrageously off, but it’s priced at a premium to the usual used market and would make more sense closer to €430–€450.
That said, the MX DAC is a respected Musical Fidelity piece with the kind of easy, clean, well-balanced presentation many buyers still want from a stand-alone converter. If the unit is genuinely clean, fully working, and comes with the right power supply or original accessories, the appeal is in getting a solid, proven DAC with decent longevity; just make sure the seller can confirm proper operation, because at this price the condition and completeness need to justify the premium.
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.
