A no-compromise reference phono preamplifier:

The Musical Fidelity M8x Vinyl is built for true vinyl enthusiasts and collectors. As the flagship model in the Musical Fidelity lineup, it features a fully balanced and 100% discrete architecture, delivering unmatched sound quality, flexibility and build integrity. With separate amplification paths for + and – signals and a precision PCB layout, it ensures maximum transparency, control and noise rejection, even at high gain levels.

Flexible cartridge setup for every system:

Whether you use MM or MC cartridges, the M8x Vinyl gives you total control. Choose from 8 gain levels and fine-tune both capacitance and impedance individually for each of the 4 inputs. Each input remembers its own settings, making it ideal for reference setups with multiple tonearms or turntables.

Advanced equalization and noise control:

The M8x Vinyl features split-passive EQ for ultra-precise reproduction and superior impedance matching. In addition to the standard RIAA curve, it also supports DECCA and COLUMBIA curves, making it perfect for collectors of rare or historic records. The two-step subsonic filter removes unwanted low-frequency noise without compromising musical integrity.

Heroic build quality and ultra-clean power:

Built with a massive aluminum chassis, the M8x Vinyl resists both vibration and electromagnetic interference. Its discrete power supply includes an encapsulated Super Silent Transformer, EMI filtering and DC blocking to provide a pristine power feed. The result is dynamic, noise-free musical performance that preserves every detail.
