Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista 800

For the first time in the history of hi-fi, Musical Fidelity have combined nuvistor technology with Surface Mount Design and CAD/CAM PCB concepts. The aim of this large undertaking was to create an ultimate super integrated amplifier. The result is extraordinary technical and sonic performance.

For Musical Fidelity, the NuVista 800 integrated was a labour of passion and love. We have tried to achieve the absolute maximum performance from every part of the circuit.

The NuVista 800 integrated offers full-on, high-end performance, in a beautiful, relatively compact package, and gives a comfortable 300 watts per channel.

The NuVista 800 delivers everything that its concepts promise. On the one hand, you have the beauty and warmth of nuvistor tubes. However, because of their superlative technical performance, there is no colouration or excessive warmth.

On the other hand, there is a huge power amp with massive reserves of power and current that has the delicacy and speed of attack (and decay) of a small triode power amp but, just you wait for that transient: it is delivered effortlessly with no colouration or limits.

The NuVista 800 sound quality is, to us at least, totally satisfying.Beautiful, deep and wide sound staging, effortless transients, incredible bottom end extension, speed, rhythm and then the exquisite mid range. We believe that this is what hi-fi is about.
