Description

MX-HPA

Years of experience in making high-quality headphone amps have been distilled into the design of the MX-HPA. As a result, this fully-balanced headphone amp offers an awe-inspiring listening experience.

The MX-HPA’s technical performance is stunning. Typically, distortion from 20 Hz to 40 kHz is less than 0.005%. Signal-to-noise ratio is better than 120dB (‘A’ weighted). Frequency response is ruler flat from 10 Hz to 20 kHz (-0.1dB).

The MX-HPA is capable of a short-term peak of 10 watts (for one cycle) and has two gain positions: 18dB (8X) and 24dB (15X). Inputs are either balanced or single-ended. The MX-HPA will automatically convert single-ended inputs to balanced. The MX-HPA is genuinely fully balanced from beginning to end.

Why Choose Musical Fidelity

Musical Fidelity is a British Hi-Fi manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing powerful, musically engaging amplifiers and source components designed around one simple philosophy — deliver big, effortless sound without unnecessary complication. Since the company’s beginnings in the 1980s, Musical Fidelity has developed a loyal following through products that combine strong engineering, substantial power delivery, and a highly enjoyable analogue-inspired presentation.

What makes Musical Fidelity particularly distinctive is the company’s focus on real-world amplifier performance and current delivery. Rather than chasing minimalist specifications or ultra-clinical presentation, Musical Fidelity products are engineered to sound expansive, confident, and highly musical across a broad range of loudspeakers and listening environments.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Musical Fidelity products consistently appeal to customers seeking amplifiers that combine authority, warmth, and strong system flexibility while still maintaining genuine high-end performance credentials. There is a sense of scale and ease to the sound that works beautifully with both digital and analogue systems.

Signature Design and Sound

Manufactured around substantial analogue amplifier platforms, Musical Fidelity products are engineered with oversized power supplies, high-current output stages, and strong emphasis on maintaining musical dynamics and tonal body even at lower listening levels.

The current B Series and M Series products in particular have attracted extremely strong international reviews for their ability to combine modern connectivity with the company’s traditional amplifier strengths. One especially useful feature within the newer range is the inclusion of HDMI eARC connectivity, allowing customers to integrate television audio directly into high-quality stereo systems without additional switching hardware or unnecessary complexity. For many customers, this creates a far more engaging alternative to conventional soundbars while maintaining proper Hi-Fi performance for music listening.

Musical Fidelity also continues to place strong emphasis on analogue integration, with many products incorporating high-quality DAC stages, moving magnet and moving coil phono preamplifiers, balanced connectivity, and substantial speaker-driving capability within highly versatile integrated amplifier platforms.

Sonically, Musical Fidelity products are known for their scale, warmth, and effortless dynamic presentation. The sound feels full-bodied and spacious, with strong bass authority, smooth tonal balance, and impressive long-term listenability. Rather than sounding overly sharp or analytical, the presentation remains inviting and highly musical while still preserving excellent detail retrieval and control.

Musical Fidelity Product Range

The Musical Fidelity range available through HeyNow Hi-Fi focuses primarily on the highly regarded B Series and M Series amplifiers, DACs, integrated amplifiers, and digital playback components designed for customers seeking strong amplifier performance together with modern system flexibility.

Products within the range combine substantial current delivery, refined analogue presentation, extensive connectivity, and practical integration features including HDMI eARC support, making them particularly attractive for modern stereo systems that integrate both music and television playback.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Geoff and his experienced system setup team provide assistance with speaker matching, television integration, analogue setup, streamer configuration, and complete system optimisation to ensure Musical Fidelity products perform at their full potential within each customer’s listening environment.
