LHH Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Item: Musical Fidelity M1 HPA Location: Canberra Price: $640 + postage. Item Condition: One small mark on top edge (shown in photo), otherwise perfect. Reason for selling: Need some cash and the MF is an optional system component. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, Bank Transfer. Extra Info: I purchased the Musical Fidelity M1 HPA last year from Miranda HiFi to use primarily as a preamp with the Weiss DAC2 and W4S Monoblocks. Its inclusion in my system massively improved on the sound I was getting with a direct connection from the Weiss to my power amps. The class A MF M1 HPA is clean, powerful and detailed, but has a subtle sweetness that is very inviting. I haven't used it much as a headphone amp (I don't have high-end phones) so I can't comment on it in that role, though it reviews well. Similarly, I have never used its USB DAC but understand that it is fairly basic. When I purchased it it retailed for $1K but it looks as though it goes for $900 now. Here's a review: http://www.techradar...a-720752/review Prior to removing it from my system it was in completely immaculate "as new" condition. However, I clumsily managed to knock the top edge with a power cable while extracting it, and it now has a small mark which I have tried to capture in the photographs. I have all the original packing etc. Pictures:
