Säljer en Musical Fidelity MX Dac
At kr2,800, this sits well below your market anchors: under the kr3,914 25th percentile and far beneath the kr4,446 median, so it reads as a strong deal rather than just fair value. Against the recent comparable range of kr3,914–kr4,729, the asking price leaves a healthy cushion for a used DAC, and it would take a real condition problem to make this merely average.
That makes it interesting because the MX DAC has a solid reputation as a clean, musical, no-nonsense outboard converter that can still slot neatly into a modern system. If it powers up cleanly and includes the right PSU, remote, or original box, the upside is even better; at this price, I’d mainly verify basic functionality, input switching, and any crackle-free output before moving fast.
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.
