I've the heard the amp and phonostage. Nice Stuff. I would get one for that price. I would even try to get MD to knock a few more points off. Shoot for $2500. The Nu Vista to my ears had a SS "precise"with a little tubey organic sound to it. Very pleasant. Of course speaker/room dependent and all the other stuff. Its discontinued, so be aware warranty means you will proabably have to ship it back to MF or their approved repair facility, likely not in the US=long down time.

Just like everything else, something works great in one system, not so much in another. No tubes? Herron, Manley, Zesto...?
