About the M3 Nuvista

The Musical Fidelity M-3 Nuvista is a super integrated amplifier released around 2001/2002, combining the renowned NuVista preamplifier with the legendary NuVista NV300 power amplifier. It operates in Class A/B for optimal musical accuracy and pleasure. The amplifier delivers 250 watts per channel into 8 ohms at 0.003% distortion, with a frequency response of 20Hz to 60kHz. It features one moving magnet phono input and five line-level inputs, plus outputs for speakers, tape, and preamp. The design includes separate power supplies and transformers for each channel, housed in an external enclosure, contributing to its substantial weight (23kg amplifier, 16kg PSU). Limited to 500 units due to the scarcity of NuVista tubes, it is highly regarded for its smooth midrange and powerful sound capable of driving large speakers. The unit includes a remote control and is finished in silver/gold or silver/silver. The M-3 Nuvista is noted for its superb build quality, luxurious controls, and excellent internal layout, making it a prized high-end amplifier.
