Instructions for use
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity M1 DAC.
The M1 DAC consists of a top quality over sampling 24 bit digital-to-analogue converter circuit which upsamples all
incoming data rates to 192kHz. This moves the digital artefacts to well outside the audio band, allowing easy removal
without detriment to the top end of the audio band. Our well tuned filtering circuit gives immeasurably small jitter,
noise and distortion artefacts allowing astounding imaging, detail and transparency, to deliver all music types exactly
as the artist originally intended.
The M1 DAC has been carefully designed to be partnered with M1 series, and also matches well with M3 and M6
series products. These combinations will yield one of the best high-fidelity systems available at any price.
Used 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.
