A1 Integrated
A1 SERIES CLASS A INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER WITH USB INPUT
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity A1 Integrated amplifier.
This new incarnation of the A1 Integrated uses a class A biased output stage to deliver the absolute best in
audio quality with no listener fatigue from crossover distortion artefacts. This results in an astounding
improvement in musicality and tonal neutrality.
The A1 is designed to be partnered with future A1 products, as well as our supercharger range. This offers a
financially lossless upgrade path. As a pure amplifier the A1 is almost perfect. The only limitation, due to
class A operation, is overall power. When you want to upgrade, the A1 is a perfect driver for the 550K or
750K superchargers, and was designed with this in mind. This combination yields one of the best
amplification 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 you have any questions about your audio system,
Please consult your dealer who is there to help and advise.
