Musical Fidelity M3

I upgraded my speakers to B&W 803 D3’s and was looking to improve my AMP and fix a dirty input selector without buying a new expensive AMP. I gave John my M3 AMP and he performed his stage 2 upgrade. It was well worth the upgrade and price was very reasonable for the work carried […]

It’s all about the music, silly!

Thank you for the return of my upgraded X-ACT which I have used with my Roksan K3 CD player as transport. I have listened to a dozen or so discs so far and can say without contradiction that, considering the extent of the improvement, this was the best £130 I have ever spent on my […]

MF Nu-Vista 600 sounding big

I have loved my NV-600 from the off for its combination of unfatiguing smoothness, detail and power, but was curious to take it as far as I could, seeing as it will be a destination amp for me. Interestingly I actually preferred the sound overall to the NV 800, which to me, sounds a little […]

MF NuVista800 improved

The unmodified NV800 is a very capable amp and one of MF’s best big integrated amps in stock form. It has clarity and detail but with a tendency to sound a touch soft and held back. Having had previous experience of JSAudio MF upgrades I knew the amp had more to offer. John’s upgrade takes […]

Upgraded amp

After owning my KW500 for a couple of years I decided to go for the Stage 2 upgrade. This was after reading all the glowing reviews here and I have not been disappointed! After running it in for a while the sound has improved no end. Dropping off and collecting the unit was easy and […]

Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista 300

The left channel of my Tri-Vista 300 integrated amplifier stopped working. Despite the lock-down, John was able to source the components to repair the unit (new valves were needed) as well as perform an upgrade. The repaired amp really does sound very special indeed.Once it has warmed up the depth, richness and musicality is remarkable. […]

A master at work

never thought my particular kit could sound any better than it already did but after John had worked his magic on it I have to say I’m totally amazed by the sonic improvements so like most on here I have no option but to give a 5 star rating and to say thanks a lot […]

Musical Fidelity X-P100 and X-AS100s

System: MF X-P100, 2x X-AS100, X-RAY, Michell Gyrodeck and B&M CDM9-NT speakers. Dealing with John was a pleasure, a real gentleman. He repaired and upgraded the X-P100 and upgraded the X-AS100s. I’m really made-up with the sound; more detail, more bass, much bigger soundstage, better balance between lows and highs, and more natural sounding. Previously […]

Krell KAV-300il Integrated Amp

I don’t normally do reviews but in this case, I’ve no hesitation in making an exception. John was upfront about mentioning the timescale he’d be aiming for to get my amp fully restored. To my surprise, given these challenging times, he proved to be a man of his word. I know it couldn’t have been […]

MUSICAL FIDELITY TRI-VISTA 21 DAC

We’ve all been to really good concerts and feel well entertained. Have you ever had a close look at the musicians face when they’re playing? You can tell who’s enjoying entertaining you. They always have this excruciating painful look, the most screwed up faces when the bass is digging deep or the guitarist is floating […]
