Musical Fidelity Tri Vista SACD player

It nearly broke my back trying to lift it onto the storage unit, and it dwarfs the other elements of the hi-fi, but does it perform well!!!

Its resolution is truly remarkable. I find flute music in particular sounds incredible. The only SACD's I've got so far are Tubular Bells and some of the Stones remasters, and though they do sound nice, it is the sound that his player can get from ordinary CD's that is most noticable.

Perhaps I will manage to save up enough to get the matching integrated amplifier whilst it's still available.

 

Congratulations. I'd like to hear this SACD player one day.

Regards,
Geoff

 

Does Musical Fidelity have any information about the SACD player on their web site? I couldn't find it. What does it cost?

The Classe retails for $12,000, which is just a bit less than the new 2003 Civic I'm to pick up at the Honda dealer later this afternoon.

 

One of my favourite hi-fi shops, Walrus in London, feature it on their web site.

Excellent shop, Les is one of the nicest people you could ever meet and they have some excellent vinyl systems - Last time I was there they were just selling their last NuVistor CD player and wondering what they could find to replace it - seems like this is their answer

Oxenholme - did you compare it to any of the usual suspect and if so what differences did you find ?

All the best - Andrew
