Musical Fidelity - brutal and unrefined ?

:cry:

 

The horrid brutish styling puts me off MF......and those f**king illuminated feet :chunder:

I walk straight past the stuff at dealers and shows, which is a shame as some of the older stuff was quite good. The Paravacini years were the best for me - A1, P140, B200, MA50 etc in the waffle top cases.

If they adressed the styling issues and rationalised the range I'm sure more people would take them seriousely.

 

now that is sad, dev, you mean that you will never buy another car? i think that new products are good to see if not to buy but if a manufacturer keeps on motivating products that to me shows that interest on their behalf to gain more customers onto their products, since they began, i almost used all their products, as well as others, i can only say that they give people excellent value sound for pound,..regards nando.

 

I'm rather fond of the styling of the original X-Series kit....

 

that's your opinion, fine JUNK NO WAY, you must as well say that about some of the naim and others,. i can mention quiite a lot but it will be uunfair to say JUNK, to me is that is there for people to like or dislike, never junk, no wonder manufacturers are going down in this country , all going abroad, after all they are all junk i suppose..nando

 

SUPER, NANDO.

 

HI, WHO DO YOU THINK ALCHEMIST ORIGINATED FROM ? I WAS PART OF THEM, M.F. BOYS THEY WERE,.NANDO

 

Yes, if the manufacturer in question was to treat existing customers with the same indifference.

Actually this is the reason I'd not buy certain makes.

 

I hate you!!!

 

now now dev, easy, print the picture..regards nando.

 

Chill out man. I aint gonna bring the UK hi fi industry to its knees now am I!!?

Fair enough, it's a well made piece of kit, so not junk in those terms.

IMO the general philosophy behind using something like the X10-V3 sucks. It is an additive piece of kit that adds nothing good to my ears. I cannot see the point, it's the antithesis of what I'm looking for in good hifi. Decent enough build - sounds crap.

 

m.f. feet

yes that is funky, but they do dancce, each of us have a visual taste, others listen. so to each it's own, havin said that name more that have fancy looks, maybe those fing feet do turn women on ..nando.

 

I love my MF Digilog, although it is pretty heavily modified. It has a very exciting, dynamic sound. No idea what most modern MF stuff sounds like, but i've had a couple of the headphone amps, and they were pretty poor.

 

My reason for starting this thread was not to criticise MF per se , it was just that every time I listened to it I found that it does not make me want to engage with the music , just wishes to impress me with its raw power , it may be that I just prefer a warmer more transparent system.

hi alby, why don't you try valve amps ? there is quite a few out there that sound very good, like zanash does mods for m.f. so do i , but is always up to the individual to choose what is the best sound for them, all we can do is help, regards nando.
