At 20 kHz distortion is still below 0.005%. Distortion at 50 kHz (a ridiculous and unreasonable measurement, but revealing of the total amplifier performance nonetheless) is 0.02%. At 100 kHz, it is about 0.06%. These extraordinary measurements, and the extremely low high-frequency distortion, are highly significant sonically.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe noise ratio of the M8s-700m is extremely low at -120 dB A-weighted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe M8s-700m has huge power reserves, producing 700 watts RMS into 8 ohms and just on 1300 watts into 4 ohms.

The sound is sweet, clear and uncoloured. Dynamics are massive and are delivered with instantaneous speed, both starting and stopping.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe M8s-700m sound stage is huge, wide and deep. It creates large amounts of air and space, and is holographic in its presentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSimilar in size and design package to the M6s 500i, the M8s-700m offers a compelling combination of fully balanced circuitry, extraordinary technical performance, exquisite sound, intelligent packaging and value for money makes a compelling case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDesign + Build\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen Musical Fidelity launched Musical Fidelity's limited-edition Titan power amplifier in back in 2008, its massive power and unique design required very large dimensions and an equally hefty price tag.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSubsequent technical advances  plus immense customer interest  have inspired Musical Fidelity to develop a more affordable, more conventional-looking successor of the Titan: the M8s-700m.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe M8s-700m is a fully balanced monobloc power amplifier, which  as its model number suggests  packs 700 watts of power in its sleek black casing. That's 700 watts RMS into 8ohms; and about 1300 watts into 4ohms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat's approaching the powerhouse performance of the 1Kw Titan itself, and indeed measurements show that in action there's only about 1.25dB between them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike its Titan forbear, the M8s-700m is engineered for extremely low distortion  typically 0.001% at 1kHz; below 0.005% at 20kHz. Even at the ridiculous level of 50kHz, distortion is a mere 0.02%, creeping up to around 0.06% at 100kHz. They may be unreasonable figures, but they prove a point: the M8s-700m has significantly less distortion than rival measurements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAgain like the Titan, the M8s-700m is a low-noise power amplifier, with a minimal noise ratio of -120dB A-weighted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe combination of the huge power reserves, low distortion and low noise contribute to the M8s-700m's extraordinary, effortless performance. It sounds almost indistinguishable from the Titan, displaying the same ability to deliver anything from massive dynamics to delicate detail with incredible speed and precision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhatever style of music you want to listen to, the M8s-700m serves it up in a spacious soundstage rivalled only by the Titan - or a live musical performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts power and balance means the M8s-700m can drive just about any speaker you choose, backed by flexible connectivity options. Twin sets of speaker terminals make bi-wiring simple, and the M8s-700m's outputs can be 'daisy chained' to bi-amp suitable speakers. It is, of course, the perfect partner  visually and sonically  for Musical Fidelity's M8 pre-amp.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReception for the new M8s-700m has been highly enthusiastic. Many press reports have highlighted its more room and wallet-friendly form, while What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision dubbed it the \"son of Titan\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Musical Fidelity","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":52740324851978,"sku":"MUSICALFID-7410","price":3599.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/3283\/6618\/files\/musical-fidelity-m8s-700m-single-power-amplifier-33471-p.png?v=1773934927","url":"https:\/\/audioemotion.co.uk\/products\/mufi-m8s700m","provider":"Audio Emotion Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
