Musical Fidelity M6SCD
CD player
It uses a 32 bit DAC with 192 kHz upsampling and delivers a musical performance faithful to even the most complex recordings.
Retained from the outgoing M6CD model is the same fabulous disc loading mechanism which proved to be both a great performer and reliable in long term use.
The M6scd comes with a range of digital inputs too.
This means it is both a world-class CD player but also a phenomenal stand-alone DAC too!
Both Coax (RCA) digital inputs work up to 24 bit 192 kHz while the 2 x Optical (Toslink) and asynchronous USB input works up to 24 bit 96 kHz.
It also has digital outputs on both Coax (RCA) and Optical (Toslink).
The Musical Fidelity M6scd offers outstanding sound quality, excellent disc readability and world-class technical performance.
It’s combination of excellent sound, good looks and a wide range of digital inputs make it an excellent partner for the M6si Integrated and a wide range if other amplifiers.
