It is silky smooth with enormous transients and an effortless feel that is at once relaxing and involving. Of special note is how the Nu-Vista 600.2 projects images between the loudspeakers so that you can almost touch them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nu-Vista 600.2 builds on the respected 600, with reworked circuitry and power supplies, a new display, and remote. The 600.2 adds Musical Fidelity's TITAN power amplifier design, which mounts a large capacitor near each output transistor to allow for more immediate access to stored energy, with much lower impedance. This results in better transient response and provides improved ripple filtering at higher currents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main supply capacitors are situated right on the rectifiers, also decreasing supply impedance and keeping rectification noise and hum away from the high-gain power amplifier circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe preamplifier, Nuvistor, and input circuits are now fully dual mono, with separate left and right power supplies. The 600.2 also gains a laser-trimmed volume control, relay input switching, a second balanced XLR input, and a balanced XLR preamp output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHeroic Build Quality\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nu-Vista 600.2’s mechanical construction is uncompromisingly rigid and solid in typical Musical Fidelity tradition. The massive front panel and side panels are milled from extruded aluminum profiles. The Nu-Vista 600.2 is designed to resist environmental vibration as well as electromagnetic interference. The massive aluminum case also shields the rest of your components from the electromagnetic fields generated by the Nu-Vista 600.2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNuvistor Tubes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNuvistor tubes were invented in the 1950s to solve the many shortcomings of conventional tubes. Nuvistors offer very high reliability, low microphony, low noise, great consistency from batch to batch, small size, relatively low power consumption, and excellent technical performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne famous application was in the Ampex MR-70, a costly studio tape recorder whose entire electronics section was based on Nuvistors. Another limited application of this very small tube was in studio-grade microphones from that era. The AKG\/Norelco C12a, which employed the 7586, is a good example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs transistors became dominant, it was “game over” for Nuvistors. Musical Fidelity later revived their use in its ground-breaking Nu-Vista series. These legendary, limited-edition products sold out in a matter of months. Today, they command very high secondhand prices because of their beautiful sound, build quality, and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA work of audio art using incredible Nu-Vista circuitry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo balanced XLR inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixed line and variable RCA and balanced XLR preamp outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor display with optional VU meters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e160 Wpc into 8 ohms, 300 Wpc into 4 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTITAN power amplifier design with locally decoupled output stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting-edge technical performance with the magic of Nuvistors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual mono power amps, preamplifier, Nuvistor, and input circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuperb design, heroic build quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtremely flat frequency response, low noise and distortion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower (8, 4 Ohms):\u003c\/b\u003e 160 Wpc, 300 Wpc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeak Power (2 Ohms):\u003c\/b\u003e 500 Wpc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVoltage:\u003c\/b\u003e 36 V RMS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCurrent:\u003c\/b\u003e 50 A peak to peak\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDamping Factor:\u003c\/b\u003e 100\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Devices:\u003c\/b\u003e 2 pairs per channel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eInput Impedance:\u003c\/b\u003e 100 k ohms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eInputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 4 × stereo RCA line, 2 × stereo balanced XLR\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutputs:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 × stereo RCA line, 1 × stereo RCA preamp, 1 × stereo balanced XLR preamp, 2 pairs of 4 mm speaker banana\/binding posts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConsumption (Standby, Idle, Max.):\u003c\/b\u003e \u0026lt;0.5 W, 75 W, 600 W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions (W × H × D):\u003c\/b\u003e 19.02\" × 7.36\" × 20.08\" (483 × 187 × 510 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 79.37 lb.
