Any love for Musical Fidelity integrateds?


I recently bought a Musical Fidelity m3si and I’m pleasantly surprised how much I enjoy the sound of it. I wanted a SS amp to use on hot days when my tube amp warms up half the house. I always heard good things about MF, so thought I’d try it, but there are few MF reviews online, so I was a little reluctant. The m3si has 85w/channel @8ohms which is plenty for my high sensitivity Tekton speakers. I’d describe it as sounding smooth and effortless; having good clarity and detail without being bright. The balance between bass, mids and treble is just right. I can listen for hours without fatigue. All in all a very enjoyable and engaging listening experience. A while back I sold my Hegel integrated as I pursued tubes, and regret it, but I’m glad to have the MF.

I have a KW 500 as well since 2015. It’s a beast of an amp and sounds really good. Never had any issues with it and way more power than I would ever need.

Thanks!
What speakers are you powering with the KWs? Curious to also hear how much better you think the Nuvista 800 is?
