Instructions for use
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity M5si integrated amplifier.
The M5si uses our tried and tested ultra low distortion power amplifier circuitry, which has enough current
reserve to drive even the most demanding speakers with ease. A very low noise and distortion, high-quality
preamplifier completes the integrated amplifier giving a perfect sound from a compact looking full size unit.
The M5si features a low noise phono stage to allow direct connection of a turntable for vinyl listening.
An asynchronous USB input has also been included which will connect to computer based home audio and
allow full quality playback of digital media, up to and including 24 bits, 96kHz sampling rate.
The M5si will aesthetically match with any future M5s as well as current M3s and M6s series products. Such
combinations will yield 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.
