M F A5.5 Integrated Amplifier

PRICE: £1700

Musical Fidelity's new A5.5 Intergrated amplifier produces 250 wpc and is capable of reproducing proper dynamic range. It has fabulous technical performance and a delicate neutral sound which belies its great muscle power potential. The A5.5 sounds rather like a super quality tube amplifier but with guts and proper dynamic range. Coupled with the A5.5 CD player there isn't much available, at any price, which offers better performance than this pair.With 4 line inputs and a phonostage this amp even comes loaded with a USB input to hook up your PC or MAC
