The Nu-Vista Vinyl was a labour of love for MF who love phono, adore tubes and are passionate about Nuvistors.
Musical Fidelity set out to make a phono stage without any practical limits. Essentially, in real life, you cannot overload the input stage or find any practical limitations in the output driving capacity. Single ended or balanced. This reference level phono stage has five inputs, each can be set for either MM/MC and exact loading. It will remember those settings.
The true point of any electronic, actually any audio component, is that you don't know it is there. You completely forget its existence. By that criteria the Nu-Vista Vinyl is almost perfect. It has no practical audible noise, it doesn't really have distortion, you cannot overload its input or output, you can load your cartridge perfectly.
It exists to serve, serve the music. To bring the artists intent, emotions and passion to your ears and heart. It has deep bass, tactile and holographic imaging, high frequency clarity with no sibilence, but the big thing it does, the thing that matters is that it eases your soul by getting you to the heart of the music.
