When combined with other Nu-Vista by Musical Fidelity products, the result is a system without compromise, capable of truly breath-taking performance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Nu-Vista PRE features fully balanced circuitry and a precision-matched stepped attenuator for volume control. This means even when listening at low or very high volume, the stereo imaging will always remain detailed and precise. For strength in drive, the Nu-Vista PRE even features a pair of mini (circa 50W) power amplifiers, running in Class A for pre-amp purposes, giving the best in line-driving capability and dynamic range, as well as achieving very low noise and distortion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIncludes the Nu-Vista PRE PSU Power Supply\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Nu-Vista PRE PSU allowed Musical Fidelity’s engineers to remove the AC mains power supply from the main unit and place it in a separate, spacious chassis dedicated to delivering perfect power. Featuring inbuilt mains and output filtering, it functions as a very quiet, clean power supply that allows the sensitive audio circuitry in the Nu-Vista PRE to perform without mains-borne interference, far away from the optimised power transformers. For total convenience in use, the Nu-Vista PRE PSU is switched on and off via the Nu-Vista PRE’s front-panel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn typical Musical Fidelity style, the overall construction of the Nu-Vista PRE and Nu-Vista PRE PSU is uncompromisingly solid. The front and side panels are milled from extruded aluminium profiles, contributing to a chassis that effectively acts as a Faraday cage, protecting the internal circuitry from external electromagnetic fields. Because of the overall weight, the chassis is also resistant to other mechanical vibrations and airborne interference.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Nu-Vista PRE features 12 independent inputs, six RCA pairs and six fully balanced XLR pairs. For better system matching there is also a +6dB Gain boost button, which remembers which inputs need the feature applied. Complete control is available via the front panel, or using the dedicate remote control, which is itself machined from a block of aluminium for the same feel. The Nu-Vista PRE PSU is then supplied with the required power cables for easy connection to the main unit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePre-Amplifier\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 28Vrms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput current:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1A peak to peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;47Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTHD+N:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 0.002 % typical, 20Hz to 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal \/ noise ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;120dB, 20Hz - 20kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGain:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.15x (normal); 4.3x (+6dB enabled); volume maximum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 K Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverload margin:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannel separation:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;100dB, 20Hz - 20kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e +0, -1dB, 5Hz to 100kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIn \u0026amp; Output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e12 independent inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6x RCA \u0026amp; 6x XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Pre output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1x RCA \u0026amp; 1x XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFixed output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1x RCA \u0026amp; 1x XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrigger input and output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5mm mono jack socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrigger level:\u003c\/strong\u003e ±5V to ±12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGeneral Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemote Control included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight PRE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22kg net (30kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight PRE PSU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25kg net (34kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions PRE (WxHxD):\u003c\/strong\u003e 483 x 187,5 x 491 (506 with connectors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions PRE PSU (WxHxD):\u003c\/strong\u003e 483 x 187,5 x 475 (478 with connectors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMains voltages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 115\/230VAC 50\/60Hz (factory pre-set); 100VAC 50\/60Hz (alternative)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConsumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;0.5W in standby mode; 65W maximum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFurther Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nuvista-audio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/MF-NuVistaPRE-EN.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Nu-Vista PRE - Product Information (PDF)\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNu-Vista PRE - Product Information (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nuvista-audio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Nu-Vista-PRE-manual-issue-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Nu-Vista PRE - User Manual (PDF)\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNu-Vista PRE - User Manual (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Musical Fidelity","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":57027926294914,"sku":"nu-vista-pre-psu-black","price":20499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":57027926327682,"sku":"nu-vista-pre-psu-silver","price":20499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0260\/8588\/3938\/files\/musical-fidelity-nuvista-pre-black.jpg?v=1794346277","url":"https:\/\/studioincar.co.uk\/products\/musical-fidelity-nu-vista-pre-preamplifier","provider":"Studio Incar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
