ENIGMA Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 I'm a musical fidelity owner, Interesting to see they are repeating what they have already done before - both style and technology.
wikeeboy Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 I used to have the original Nuvista M3 Integrated and matching 3D cd player. My biggest mistake was selling it! Would love to hear how the 800 sizes up against the original M3. IMHO none of MF's integrated after the M3 have been as good. Genuinely interested in how this one sounds... 2

That pretty much sums up my opinion as well....but.....I still have my 3D cd player........ Edited November 5, 2014 by pulinap

I bought the M3 & 3D new (my first real hi end purchase man years ago), and sold it all only months later getting the upgrade bug. Well at least i thought it was an upgrade at the time... Silly boy
MusicOne Posted December 21, 2014 Author Posted December 21, 2014 Has anyone auditioned one yet? Not sure if Len Wallis has a demo unit available.

betty boop Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Any pricing available yet? I think its one of those special pieces in the "don't ask" territory...well I don't really want to know... 1
MusicOne Posted December 21, 2014 Author Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) I think its one of those special pieces in the "don't ask" territory...well I don't really want to know... I received a call from Len Wallis Audio about a month ago and they indicated that the price would be $15K....I think...and from memory. I did ask about the availability of a demo unit, but he wasn't sure when. PS That price might have been $16K, I'm not entirely sure. Edited December 21, 2014 by MusicOne

PS That price might have been $16K, I'm not entirely sure. quite possible, the 3D integrated from some years ago was a $10k affair so $15-$16k doesn't seem that far from the tree. len wallis are good that way with demos and something like this be a great idea, experience in your own room and system...probably not want to let it go

I just can not imagine that it would be $10k better than my M6 500i. That's good - I won't be tempted
Guest kab Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 The RRP in England is 7999 pounds. And where are they manufactured?
Guest kab Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) http://www.sevenoakssoundandvision.co.uk/p-12459-mf-nuvista800-slv.aspx "Designed" in England. Edited December 21, 2014 by kab
rantan Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 http://www.sevenoakssoundandvision.co.uk/p-12459-mf-nuvista800-slv.aspx Designed in England. Manufactured in Taiwan.
Guest kab Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Taiwan and 7999 quid......I dont think so.
buddyev Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Yeh, im sure it would be a far better product if it was made in geelong. 4
Guest kab Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Moving a company off shore to save on labour and manufacturing costs therefore putting people in England out of a job all in the name to be competitive, then still have the gall to charge 8000 pounds for an amp is beyond me.
