Classic Amplifier Technology

MUSICAL FIDELITY has been developing and building amplifiers for over four decades, with the consistent goal of effortlessly driving any loudspeaker design. The key is high current delivery – the ability to supply sufficient current to the transistors for even the most demanding musical passages.

While many amplifiers in this class rely on large capacitor banks, MUSICAL FIDELITY has always favored generously dimensioned power supplies, centered around a substantial toroidal transformer. Although more expensive, this approach is considered the best path to superior sound.

In the pre-amplifier stage, MUSICAL FIDELITY also makes no compromises, equipping the B1xi with fully discrete Class-A pre-amplification.
