"A Preamp Without Limits"
Musical Fidelity's beautifully designed M6s PRE is what the company founder and CEO Antony Michaelson terms "effectively a preamp without limits." Its wide range of inputs, coupled with superlative performance, mean it can form the heart of almost any system, regardless of price. It sounds that good. Its sonic hallmarks are very low distortion, minimal phase shift, low noise, and excellent linearity.
The M6s PRE uses a pure Class A design with SMD Surface Mount Devices and low impedance output stages, and is capable of driving any power amplifier, over any length of cable. And it is easy to feed, making it even more flexible.
Digital and Analog Inputs
The M6s PRE has an array of inputs suited to both traditional and modern music sources. It has a high quality MM/MC phono stage, allowing you to plug in your turntable directly without the need for a separate outboard phono preamp. It also has two XLR balanced inputs, three line-level RCA connections, and a fully configured tape in/out loop.
A digital USB connection delivers superb musical performance from your computer and other digital devices. The built-in asynchronous USB DAC capable of 24-bit/96kHz audio playback
On the output side, the M6s PRE offers both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA stereo output pairs.
Home Theater Bypass
The M6s PRE provides home theater bypass options on both the balanced and line-level inputs, making it easy to integrate the M6s PRE into your multi-channel system. It's simple to set up with the flick of a rear panel switch for each of the two input types. This mode passes the left and right front channels from a surround sound decoder directly through to the amplifiers and speakers without affecting the surround-sound system’s volume or channel balance.
Performance is stunning. The M6s PRE sounds sweet, clear and fast, with tight, extended bass. No wonder that in his Hi-Fi+ review of the M6s range, Alan Sircom praised the M6s PRE for being "both excellent and excellent value for money."
Perfect Partnership
The M6s PRE is the perfect partner for Musical Fidelity's new M6s PRX stereo power amplifier. Needless to say, it excels with any product in Musical Fidelity's M6s product line or any premium AV components.
