Musical Fidelity A1

A1 - Overview. In Hi-Fi, the Musical Fidelity A1 has become one of the most classic designs - inside and out. First released back in 1985, it quickly made waves for being an absolute beast when it came down to driving some of the most difficult speakers of that time, even though it was actually a rather low powered integrated amplifier.

The new Musical Fidelity A1 Integrated Class A Amplifier is a purely analogue amplifier that does without digital inputs or even integrated streaming. Five pairs of cinch sockets are provided, as well as a phono preamplifier, which is equally suitable for turntables equipped with MM or MC cartridge systems. A pre-out is not missing either.

The tiny Musical Fidelity A1 was once known for its beautiful sound, but the first amplifiers launched in 1985 gained a reputation for frying the output transistors. The reason was a heat so intense that you could almost sear steaks on the amplifier's top plate.

Musical Fidelity's solution was to turn the A1's casework into a giant heatsink, and it worked to a certain extent. Even so, it is fair to say that the original amplifier still skirted on the edge of acceptability when it came to heat output.

There are several Musical Fidelity dealers in the Toronto area, so I've had a chance to demo several products. The M6s line (I own the M6 phono preamp - it's truly superb) is the sweet spot in the high-end lineup for Musical Fidelity.. ( and got a rep for component cost cuts) was the A1 from the 1980s. Project, the new owners I believe.
