Overview

The M6xTT establishes the design philosophies of the legendary M1 turntable in our M6 line. The M1 design was created by Musical Fidelity founder Antony Michaelson and Heinz Lichtenegger - back then Musical Fidelity distributor and now brand owner. The design was very important and should match the mechanically stunning amplifiers. The base idea was to combine the inert mass of metal alloys with zero resonating acrylic. The motor was effectively decoupled from the tonearm and platter with the dual chassis construction.

It was a great success and after the M8xTT, now the M6xTT is second in line to bring a more affordable version of this design philosophy to the market.

Features

The Tonearm
The 9-inch tonearm is the same design as in the M8xTT, but with a shorter tonearm tube, a streamlined headshell design and a direct 5P DIN output. It incorportes our ultra low resonance design with transparent acrylic bearing ring and conical aluminium tonearm tube. The tonearm is fully VTA and azimuth adjustable and comes with two counterweights, which are TPE damped to prevent resonances.
The Motor & Platter
The motor is sitting in on a special foam in the lower level acrylic plinth to decouple it from the platter and the tonearm. The electronic speed control allows you to switch between 33 & 45 RPM. Like the M8xTT, the M6xTT is equipped with the same sophisticated speed control technology. The motor is powered by a precision DC-driven AC generator for the utmost in precision of speed and stability. This means the frequency and voltage for the motor are completely generated from scratch by our control electronics and you are not handicapped by the quality of your mains power when it comes to achieving perfect playback speeds. A one-piece belt manufactured without any gluing con connects the motor and the TPE damped platter, which is made of aluminium and weighs a hefty 6.6kg.
The Feet
Four heavyweight TPE damped aluminium feet with magnetic support connect the two acrylic plinths with teflon spacers in between. You can adjust them in height by turning the riffled middle part of the feet to level the turntable.
In The Box
You will find a heavyweight full aluminium puck in the box to stabilize your records while playing to achieve the best possible tracking. A leather turntable mat is also included, which is a superior base for your vinyl records. You will benefit from less noise and a special sound characteristic. To connect your M6xTT to your preamplifier, a semi-balanced phono interconnect cable with gold-plated connectors is included as well. A clear acrylic dustcover is available separately.

Awards and press

"The M6xTT made the music flow without drawing attention to itself… and allowed the listener to be captivated by the music. Provides great timing and stability. Soundstage is wide and tall with good depth. Wonderful detail is on offer, both macro and micro."
Soundstage! Australia
"The M6x TT is a refined turntable, with a precise tonearm and fine adjustments. This source also surprised us. It broke the tracks down into so many sounds that it was as if this wasn’t a record, but some other medium with a 3D recording."
Salon Audio Video Russia
A turntable that sounds every bit as classy as it looks with a fullness, sense of image solidity and deep, sumptuous bass.
