Musical Fidelity X-Tube Buffer

The Musical Fidelity X-Tube Preamplifier helps refine and enrich the sound of digital and analogue sources making budget streamers DACs and CD players sound more natural and engaging. It features a tube output buffer with two E88CC triode tubes adding warmth depth and richness typical of high-end valve equipment. The X-Tube acts as an intermediary between your audio source and amplifier ensuring better impedance matching and preventing signal loss. Modern digital sources like streamers and DACs often lack high-quality output stages relying on cost-saving integrated circuits. The X-Tube compensates for this by offering a high-impedance input that places minimal strain on the connected source while providing a clean low-impedance output for optimal amplifier performance. With its classic X-profile aluminium chassis RCA input/output connectivity and built-in power supply the X-Tube is a practical solution for improving sound quality across various setups.
