About the Nu-Vista Vinyl 2

The Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 is a high-end phono preamplifier featuring a fully balanced and discrete design with a Class A Nuvistor tube stage. It supports both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges with multiple gain settings and offers selectable loading options for precise cartridge matching. The unit includes split-passive RIAA, DECCA, and COLUMBIA equalization curves, a two-step subsonic filter, and a super silent power transformer. It has multiple inputs (2x RCA and 2x balanced XLR) and outputs (1x RCA and 1x balanced XLR), with the ability to connect multiple inputs and outputs simultaneously. The Nu-Vista Vinyl 2 also features a color display showing loading settings, a dimmable screen, and remote control. It can optionally be powered by an external Nu-Vista Uni PSU for enhanced performance. The chassis is robust and designed to minimize resonance and noise, weighing 22 kg and measuring 483 x 188 x 510 mm. The phono stage is praised for its extremely low distortion (<0.008%), high signal-to-noise ratio (-96 dB MM, -86 dB MC), and excellent RIAA accuracy (+/- 0.25 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz). It is built to deliver a transparent, detailed, and musical sound that faithfully conveys the artist's intent without audible noise or distortion, making it a reference-level phono stage for audiophiles.
