RRP: £8249.00
A visually striking high-end turntable, combining high-mass and isolation design principles to produce a sound and technical performance capable of impressing any vinyl audiophile. From its bespoke 10” tonearm, through the multi-layered plinth and heavy aluminium platter, on to its height-adjustable feet, every part of the turntable is built to the highest standard.
A high-End turntable with radical concepts and innovations originating from its legendary predecessor, the M1 from 2004!
The M8xTT turntable is not only a work of art but is also a well-designed machine, featuring even more expressive technical features in comparison to its predecessors. Combining high-mass and isolation design principles to produce a sound and technical performance capable of impressing any vinyl audiophile.
The M8xTT’s dual-layer plinth is made of non-resonant acrylic, mounted on four height-adjustable magnetic feet with Teflon spacers between the layers. The top layer houses the main bearing spindle and the tonearm mount for complete isolation from the stand-alone drive motor, which rests on the bottom plinth, isolated from the structure by a special foam material. The result is a turntable that effectively eliminates the transfer of resonances from the surrounding environment and from within itself.
The drive motor is connected to the TPE-damped main platter by a silicon drive belt. The unique platter also boasts a dual-layer construction, joined together by aluminium inserts which effectively improve the flywheel effect as the platter begins to turn. This, in combination with the purpose-selected motor, which also features automatic speed changing between 33 and 45rpm, results in a turntable that is capable of exceptional rotational stability.
The 10-inch tonearm features a conical aluminium tonearm tube and translucent acrylic bearing ring in a completely new, ultra-low resonance Musical Fidelity design. The tonearm has two counterweights and is fully VTA and azimuth adjustable, allowing it to be used with cartridges weighing 6 to 20g. To stop resonances, the counterweights are TPE damped.
Standard phono RCA outputs and balanced XLR connections are located on the back, providing you with the utmost versatility when selecting a phono preamplifier.
The M8xTT is a true high-end record player. Thanks to its use of mass-loaded materials as part of a decoupled chassis construction, it is capable of a rock-solid performance, so any connected pick-up cartridge can perform to its highest ability. Designed with the “Musical Fidelity sound” in mind, this is a worthy addition to any serious hi-fi system. For added convenience, the M8xTT is supplied with a leather platter mat and heavy aluminium record puck inside the packaging.
Musical Fidelity M8xTT
"The Musical Fidelity M8xTT is a masterclass in taking a classic design and bringing it right up to date."
Henley Says...
A reconceptualisation of the historic M1 turntable, the M8xTT is an exceptional piece of engineering brilliance, boasting incredible performance and precision. Utilising cutting-edge technology integrated seamlessly into its design, this machine is capable of delivering an outstanding presentation, making it a true benchmark in its field. From its sleek and stylish design to its efficient operation, the M8xTT stands out as a true industry leader. With unparalleled functionality and reliability, this is a machine that simply must be experienced to be believed. With its minimal and effortless assembly, setting up a turntable has never been so satisfying.
The M8xTT needs to be experienced in person to truly do it justice, and with the immersive involvement of listening to vinyl on it, you simply won't regret it.
