About this deal

Meet the mighty TITAN: 1kW per channel dual monobloc design with external power supply. Hi-Fi News was ‘Smitten… The Titan is the best power amplifier I’ve used’. Two mighty toroidal transformers in the Musical Fidelity NU-VISTA PAS PSU are responsible for the fact that the PSU weighs in at a hefty 40 kg, while the amplifier itself weighs in at 27 kg, making it seem like a lightweight. RCA invented Nuvistor tubes in the 1950s to solve the many shortcomings of conventional tubes. Unlike them, Nuvistor tubes are said to offer very high reliability, low microphony, low noise, consistency from batch to batch, small size, relatively low power consumption and greattechnical performance. The tube is made entirely out of metal and ceramic, with the complex manufacturing process requiring special equipment. It goes without saying that if you’re after something that’s not on the list, you should type it in the search bar. I mean, that’s the whole point of Nude Vista. It’s a porno search engine, remember?

Given what has been stated in this thread it would seem nuvistors are worthy of consideration, but certainly not the be-all-end-all. I was perhaps hopeful to learn or field opinions that it could offer traditional vacuum tube sound without the negatives, whatever the traditional sound (if any) and negatives (if any) happen to be. And its already been pointed out (here and/or elsewhere) that there is no tube sound per se and everything has negatives. Nu-Vista Preamp launched, using miniature, metal-cased nuvistor tubes. All 500 units sold within three months. AltaVista was already starting to falter by the time the NudeVista domain was registered. The former search giant finally shuttered in 2013. Meanwhile, NudeVista has continued to grow, both in their userbase and catalog of dirty, filthy porno. The younger wankers don’t even remember AltaVista, but NudeVista is currently encouraging nearly 30 million crank sessions a month.Musical Fidelity has been designing and manufacturing Hi-Fi electronics for over thirty years and are proud to have become one of the best-known brands in the Hi-Fi industry. The aim was to combine a warm, musical sound with the corresponding power potential, and this is exactly what the Musical Fidelity NU-VISTA Series has always been known for, and in the latest generation it is supposed to do with flying colours. Nuvistor tubes – The alternative to conventional tubes

Flagship kW pre-amp and kW power amp launched: ‘the very finest amps you can buy...the MFs redefine audio standards’ (What Hi-Fi?)

Full list of categories

X-Ray CD player launched. Described as ‘the sort of object you just want to fondle’ (Hi-Fi News) ‘a thrilling, substantial and satisfying listen’ (What Hi-Fi?) and ‘Hi-Fi meets nuclear warhead’ (T3).

As already described, the new Musical Fidelity NU-VISTA PAS presents itself with a balanced, low-distortion circuit, which, according to the manufacturer, is based on the Musical Fidelity Titan – a real powerhouse with an output of 1.000 watts. The new Musical Fidelity NU-VISTA PAS should be similarly powerful. The developers’ declared aim was to fully live up to the claim that Antony Michaelson, the founder of Musical Fidelity, had always pursued, namely to realise an audio system that sounded like tube and Class A amplifier systems, but at the same time had the power to realistically reproduce music in all its dynamics.Line-up expands to meet every hi-fi need and budget. Highlights include the AMS CD/DAC – our finest digital product yet - and AMS100, the world’s most advanced pure Class A amp You may also like… Trigger inputs and outputs can be used to set up a central control system, and for connecting the loudspeaker systems, extremely solid, even massive screw terminals are available, four of them per channel. Extremely sturdy cabinet In contrast to tubes of classical design, nuvistor tubes were supposed to convince with a very high reliability, low sensitivity to microphonics, low noise, a high consistency from batch to batch, a small size and last but not least a comparatively low power consumption. With the technology lying dormant until about fifteen years ago, Musical Fidelity created the first of its ground-breaking Nu-Vista series. These legendary, limited-edition products sold out in a matter of months. Today, they command very high secondhand prices because of their reported “beautiful sound, build quality and longevity.” It goes without saying that once again the enclosures are of solid construction, and the designers have succeeded in creating an appealing, clear design line.

No apology necessary. I’m very appreciative of your input (and clarifications). And I get what you’re stating (and agree) about purchasing based on sound quality, long term reliability and serviceability. That writes and sounds much easier than it is. Not always so easy to make a choice, given the hundreds if not thousands of available choices. Also, it's rather impractical to attempt to listen/audition all options. The Nu-Vista 600 has 4 transistors per channel and outputs 200 wpc, the N800 has 10 transistors per channel and outputs 300w. The Nu-Vista 600 has the benefit of the Nu-Vista valve preamp stage. The preamp is directly coupled to the input stage so you have shorter signal paths, we have an improved psu over the M6si. The developers here rely on five pairs of high-performance output stages for stable and reliable operation, with separate capacitors for the main power supply and output stages reducing impedance and improving dynamics. Extra built-in chokes improve supply ripple and reduce pulse current spikes, according to the manufacturer’s description.Well, maybe you’ll have to suffer through that fever. NudeVista’s model search brings up 18 pornstars for that request. Only one of them is Asian, and she has brown eyes. She does have a pierced clit and DDs, though. It was a good effort. You hear the beauty, warmth and transparency of the valve stage and the transients and power of the transistor power amps. World’s first audio application of trivistor tubes in new Tri-Vista series, including legendary Tri-Vista 21 ‘Super DAC’.
