Instructions for use
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity M6 500i dual mono integrated amplifier.
The M6 500i is designed to be partnered with present and future M6 series products. Featuring no less than
four power amplifiers (based on our TiTAN design), bridged to create two monoblock 500 watt power amplifiers,
a very high powered integrated amplifier solution is realised, allowing reproduction of the type of musical
transients most other integrated amplifiers could never supply.
The preamplifier section features a precision laser-trimmed electronic attenuator. This allows the soundstage to
remain rock-steady even as the volume is changed, allowing pinpoint accuracy and precise reconstruction of
the original musical experience, at any volume setting. A 7-segment LED display shows the setting down to
each individual ½ -dB step of the attenuator.
Four RCA line inputs cater for a variety of musical sources, all labelled for convenience. Provision is also made
for an XLR balanced input to take full advantage of sources with fully balanced outputs as well.
This combination yields one of the best high-fidelity systems available at any price.
Used properly and carefully, it should give many years of outstanding musical reproduction.
Dust regularly with a soft duster or soft brush, but be careful when using cleaning or polishing agents - they may
harm the surface finish. If there are any questions about the audio system, please consult the dealer who is
there to help and advise.
