A true milestone in the history of one of the brands most closely linked to the legendary “British sound”: Musical Fidelity . This is how its creators define the new M6x DAC digital audio processor, as a consequence of the concentration of technical refinements that it houses inside, from a new D/A conversion circuitry with Double Differential Mode architecture to the innovative Super Silent power transformer, through substantial improvements in the firmware and the increasingly attractive Roon Tested approval or compatibility with MQA or DSD files.
Going deeper into the details of Musical Fidelity , we must first highlight the use of the new D/A conversion “chip” ES9038Q2M, integrated into the prestigious Saber range from ESS Technology. Specifically, two units of the same are used mounted in double differential mode, in order to achieve the benefits of a pure double monophonic design, benefits that are reinforced by the presence of an exclusive scheme from the Californian firm: the Time Domain Jitter Eliminator.
On the other hand, both the unbalanced outputs with RCA connectors and their balanced counterparts with XLR connectors incorporate their own separator stage to maximize sound performance by combining extremely low noise, large output amplitude and high noise handling capacity. current.
The M6x DAC also includes all-new digital filters, a dedicated PCB, and a powerful headphone amplifier with Class AB operation and power supply topology.
