Highlights:• Revival of the iconic Musical Fidelity A1 from 1985• 25W of pure Class A power per channel at 8 Ohms • Upgraded power supply with dual mono split rail technology • Low-noise JFET preamp with motorized ALPS RK volume control • Phono stage supports both MM and MC with auto impedance matching • Direct bypass function (-10 dB) ideal for modern sources • Distinctive design with large, functional heatsinks • Perfect for medium-sized rooms and 2-way speakers A classic reborn with modern upgrades:The Musical Fidelity A1 is back and better than ever. This 2023 version pays tribute to the legendary 1985 original that revolutionized Hi-Fi with its warm, detailed sound and pure Class A topology. The new edition preserves the signature symmetrical circuitry, high-grade components and iconic design while incorporating modern enhancements like reduced noise, improved efficiency and increased reliability.Power delivery and precision refined:The updated A1 features a dual mono split rail transformer that supplies each channel independently, resulting in a more stable operation, enhanced stereo imaging and lower noise. Each amplifier channel now has double the current capacity and improved filtering to minimize ripple and power surges. The low-noise JFET preamp ensures clean signal handling, and a new "direct" switch allows the gain stage to be bypassed, reducing gain by 10 dB – ideal for sensitive speakers or high-output digital sources.Advanced phono stage for vinyl lovers:A1’s phono stage has been refined for both MM and MC cartridges, using a discrete current-mode input for ultra-low noise. With automatic impedance matching and precise RIAA equalization, it delivers dynamic and natural vinyl playback. Whether you're a seasoned collector or new to vinyl, this amp takes your analog sound to the next level.Designed for true music enthusiasts:The Musical Fidelity A1 isn’t just an amplifier, it’s a piece of Hi-Fi history. Its oversized heatsinks are essential to its Class A performance and define its unmistakable appearance. The minimalist, functional design makes it a visual centerpiece in any setup. With its smooth, grain-free warmth and ability to drive demanding speakers effortlessly, the A1 pairs beautifully with high-quality 2-way speakers in medium-sized rooms. This is pure Hi-Fi – natural, musical and thoroughly engaging.Specifications:• Power: 25 watts per channel at 8 Ohms• Topology: Discrete symmetrical Class A • Max output current: 25A • Damping factor: 150 • Gain: 32dB (Direct), 42dB (Normal) • Signal-to-noise ratio: 82dB • Frequency response: +0, -1dB from 10Hz to 40kHz • Line input: 5x RCA, 300mV nominal • Phono input: MM/MC with automatic impedance matching • MM sensitivity: 5mV / 50k Ohm / 40dB • MC sensitivity: 450µV / 1k Ohm / 60dB • Outputs: TAPE OUT, PRE OUT, SPEAKER OUT • Dimensions: 440 x 68.3 x 283.3 mm • Weight: 10.5 kg • Power consumption: 130W max / 0W standby
