{"id":14911971852665,"title":"Moonriver Audio Reference 404 Integrated Amplifier","handle":"moonriver-audio-reference-404-integrated-amplifier","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe 404 Reference integrated amplifier\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the runaway success of The Moonriver Model 404 (Standard), we decided to move a step further by improving on the already excellent design platform of the Standard 404 model. The Moonriver Model 404 Reference achieves even better performance over the Standard Model, while retaining a sensible price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust like the Standard Model 404, the 404 Reference amplifier will extract hidden elements, and render textures from within any audio format; but with the capability to drive any speaker on the market – despite its moderate power. Only the source, speakers and room will set the performance limit. Its culture will suit all music, as the Model 404 is by design, set to define the faintest nuances of which tonal integrity is composed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power supply section has been improved to the maximum. The 404 standard uses a total of 57000uf capacitance. The 404 Reference lifts the capacitance to a spectacular 107000uf of which 21000 of them are reserved for the preamp only.  This enormous increment expands the driving behaviour; the dynamic character; digs out more detail; low level information; a deeper and more articulate soundtstage; space between instruments is vast, while the bass has greater authority and is more confident than ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture of each individual instrument is exposed exponentially in comparison with the Standard version. A fully discrete preamp section serves to provide acute dynamic awareness, while a high output stage that is custom-optimised for bandwidth and distortion, gives neutral character and transient fidelity. A sophisticated selection of components fuses the design against tonal traits, therefore preserving naturalness throughout the shortest feasible signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, an integrated phono stage, USB DAC, (two) preamp outputs and a tape monitor loop expand functionality to form an ideally flexible integrated amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModular Architecture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoonriver 404 Reference amplifier is modular like its brother; it can accommodate an MM or MM\/MC phono stage and a USB asynchronous DAC.  Fitting these modules is simple, and can take place at any time, on or after purchase.  The USB DAC may also be upgraded with a newer version to meet future needs and technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBalance Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may find this feature to be vanishingly scarce in audiophile products as a result of today’s ‘minimalist’ design mentality and the various myths accompanying it. However, balance control addresses a common problem: speakers that are positioned in asymmetry, in a non-balanced room environment. It therefore provides the simplest tweak towards achieving a proper soundstage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiving rooms and house furniture are meant to serve everyday life and may not be positioned in an ideal listening spot, evenly distanced from each speaker to form an equilateral triangle. It is also not uncommon for one speaker to have to be placed nearer room boundaries than the other, having various frequencies boosted in a more or less predictable pattern. More often than not, balance control is incredibly useful as it drastically helps overcome volume level unevenness and in some cases, even reclaiming the stereo effect and the resulting focused sound stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is to be expected, the way the balance control is implemented on the Moonriver 404 Reference amplifier – in parallel, will not degrade or affect the signal in any way that is determinable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDiscovering the layout\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference, like the standard model, incorporates no less than 5 separate power supplies, each featuring overload protection. The power amplifier specifically runs on a dual mono configuration, beginning from separate windings on the toroidal transformer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWBT nextgenTM speaker terminals ensure the massive flow of current from the amplifier’s output stage, is able to drive even “difficult to drive” speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignal switches are implemented via relays, while volume attenuation is trusted on the legendary blue ALPS pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA soft start circuit based on a 30A relay ensures that even the on\/off switch is thought out to work with virtually no burden or wear for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 404 Reference chassis reduces unwanted resonant vibrations even further with absorbent materials, and better integral mechanical support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComponents are carefully selected for both suitability and reliability. We make no use of surface-mount in analog circuits, despite the fact that through-hole production costs more, and requires advanced space management \u0026amp; layout strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach element utilised has to be of proven stability and sustained higher performance – proficient implementation provided, before making it into our analog paths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs for the sound, we are not to say whether Model 404 Reference is virtually transparent or inherently forgiving. Voicing it to appreciate the playlist and respect the user at all times has been the sum of all of our effort; \u003cem\u003ea sincere effort to achieve effortlessness.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional Phono Stage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference comes with two options in the phono stage department; one is MM only and the other is MM\/MC selectable. Both follow the exact quality principles that Model 404 Reference is built on. Quality components and massive power supplies are also employed here, to efficiently accommodate very low noise, high performance op-amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gain in the MM\/MC phono can be adjusted, simply by changing the dip switches position.

The SPDIF supports PCM streams up to 192kHz\/24bit due to the limitation of the SPDIF (coaxial) specifications. There are 3 separated power supplies with very low noise regulators, 2 for the ESS dac board and 1 for the analog circuit. The capacitor bank is massive and it uses 42000uF (in case of 404 Reference) from the power amplifier’s power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecially care has been given to the voicing of the analog output stage to match the dynamic and natural character of Moonriver sound.

The Moonriver Model 404 Reference achieves even better performance over the Standard Model, while retaining a sensible price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust like the Standard Model 404, the 404 Reference amplifier will extract hidden elements, and render textures from within any audio format; but with the capability to drive any speaker on the market – despite its moderate power. Only the source, speakers and room will set the performance limit. Its culture will suit all music, as the Model 404 is by design, set to define the faintest nuances of which tonal integrity is composed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power supply section has been improved to the maximum. The 404 standard uses a total of 57000uf capacitance. The 404 Reference lifts the capacitance to a spectacular 107000uf of which 21000 of them are reserved for the preamp only.  This enormous increment expands the driving behaviour; the dynamic character; digs out more detail; low level information; a deeper and more articulate soundtstage; space between instruments is vast, while the bass has greater authority and is more confident than ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture of each individual instrument is exposed exponentially in comparison with the Standard version. A fully discrete preamp section serves to provide acute dynamic awareness, while a high output stage that is custom-optimised for bandwidth and distortion, gives neutral character and transient fidelity. A sophisticated selection of components fuses the design against tonal traits, therefore preserving naturalness throughout the shortest feasible signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, an integrated phono stage, USB DAC, (two) preamp outputs and a tape monitor loop expand functionality to form an ideally flexible integrated amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModular Architecture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoonriver 404 Reference amplifier is modular like its brother; it can accommodate an MM or MM\/MC phono stage and a USB asynchronous DAC.  Fitting these modules is simple, and can take place at any time, on or after purchase.  The USB DAC may also be upgraded with a newer version to meet future needs and technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBalance Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may find this feature to be vanishingly scarce in audiophile products as a result of today’s ‘minimalist’ design mentality and the various myths accompanying it. However, balance control addresses a common problem: speakers that are positioned in asymmetry, in a non-balanced room environment. It therefore provides the simplest tweak towards achieving a proper soundstage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiving rooms and house furniture are meant to serve everyday life and may not be positioned in an ideal listening spot, evenly distanced from each speaker to form an equilateral triangle. It is also not uncommon for one speaker to have to be placed nearer room boundaries than the other, having various frequencies boosted in a more or less predictable pattern. More often than not, balance control is incredibly useful as it drastically helps overcome volume level unevenness and in some cases, even reclaiming the stereo effect and the resulting focused sound stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is to be expected, the way the balance control is implemented on the Moonriver 404 Reference amplifier – in parallel, will not degrade or affect the signal in any way that is determinable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDiscovering the layout\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference, like the standard model, incorporates no less than 5 separate power supplies, each featuring overload protection. The power amplifier specifically runs on a dual mono configuration, beginning from separate windings on the toroidal transformer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWBT nextgenTM speaker terminals ensure the massive flow of current from the amplifier’s output stage, is able to drive even “difficult to drive” speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignal switches are implemented via relays, while volume attenuation is trusted on the legendary blue ALPS pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA soft start circuit based on a 30A relay ensures that even the on\/off switch is thought out to work with virtually no burden or wear for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 404 Reference chassis reduces unwanted resonant vibrations even further with absorbent materials, and better integral mechanical support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComponents are carefully selected for both suitability and reliability. We make no use of surface-mount in analog circuits, despite the fact that through-hole production costs more, and requires advanced space management \u0026amp; layout strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach element utilised has to be of proven stability and sustained higher performance – proficient implementation provided, before making it into our analog paths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs for the sound, we are not to say whether Model 404 Reference is virtually transparent or inherently forgiving. Voicing it to appreciate the playlist and respect the user at all times has been the sum of all of our effort; \u003cem\u003ea sincere effort to achieve effortlessness.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional Phono Stage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel 404 Reference comes with two options in the phono stage department; one is MM only and the other is MM\/MC selectable. Both follow the exact quality principles that Model 404 Reference is built on. Quality components and massive power supplies are also employed here, to efficiently accommodate very low noise, high performance op-amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gain in the MM\/MC phono can be adjusted, simply by changing the dip switches position. The MC input load can be set also, by replacing the original 100 Ohm input resistor with a higher or lower value. No soldering is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional SPDIF DAC\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe add-on dac module is based on the 9000 series ESS Sabre dac chip. The SPDIF supports PCM streams up to 192kHz\/24bit due to the limitation of the SPDIF (coaxial) specifications. There are 3 separated power supplies with very low noise regulators, 2 for the ESS dac board and 1 for the analog circuit. The capacitor bank is massive and it uses 42000uF (in case of 404 Reference) from the power amplifier’s power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecially care has been given to the voicing of the analog output stage to match the dynamic and natural character of Moonriver sound. The result is an impressive sounding digital-to-analog converter which respects the timing, the space and the color of the music and unfolds the dynamic contrast – the definition of every musical event.\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/moonriveraudio.com\/the-404-reference-integrated-amplifier\/#\" class=\"inactive-link pushed\" data-lb-index=\"0\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uncode_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional USB DAC\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat was desired for our USB DAC module was not to make an addition rather than an omission; instead we had to be confident of substantially raising the true value and functionality of Model 404.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe add-on USB dac module is also based on the 9000 series ESS Sabre dac chip with native DSD support.

its ability to deliver a sound performance like nothing else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new generation of Musical Fidelity A1, released in 2023, stays true to the original design in almost every way, only making changes to improve certain technical characteristics and suit modern requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electrical layout of the A1 features completely discrete, fully symmetrical pure Class A technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivering 25W of power (to an 8Ω load), it can also handle 25A of maximum current output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough these numbers may seem low compared to some modern amplifiers, the A1 is still able to drive more complex speakers thanks to its ability to slide (not “switch”) into Class B operation when further current draw is temporarily needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1’s transformer design is directly inspired by the 1988 design but has been updated with more efficient dual-mono split-rail windings and better components for improved stability and better heat management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier stages are now powered by fully independent supplies for left and right channel allowing for better power handling and stereo imaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach power amplifier also now has double the supply capacity, resulting in reduced ripple and noise artefacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-noise pre-amplifier circuitry is the same as the original A1, though this area also benefits from new modern touches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, the DIRECT switch on the front panel allows users to bypass the Gain stage before the musical signal reaches the volume dial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy switching this button on, the pre-amplifier stage will apply roughly 10dB less gain, suiting it to more modern, high-gain source devices that may benefit from a wider volume dial range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond, the use of a new ALPS RK series motorised potentiometer for the volume dial not only allows greater accuracy and reliability, but it means the 2023 A1 amplifier can also make use of a remote control for volume adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside five RCA stereo inputs, a fixed level output and a variable output, the A1 also features a high-quality built-in phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe phono input allows for direct connection to a turntable, whether it has a moving magnet (MM) or a moving coil (MC) cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-noise design and automatic impedance-matching for MC cartridges make this a viable solution, and a great convenience for vinyl record lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe industrial design of the Musical Fidelity A1 is the same as the original from the 1980s, with its angular front panel, full-length top-mounted heatsink and side-mounted ventilation panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe only minor modifications are intended to help enhance the user experience and manage the heat output from the pure Class A technology employed within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result, when combined with the intricate workings, is an amplifier that takes you right back to the original design brief for the A1: to enjoy

Now we are making the amazing new Eigentakt (self-clocking) technology, recently introduced to the world in the EISA Award winning Masters M33, available to a wider audience with the very affordable C 298. We are thrilled to provide this unprecedented level of performance. In short, a perfect companion for the C 658 BluOS Streaming DAC pre-amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAmazing Flexibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C 298 may be a basic Power Amp, but we have carefully thought through all the use cases typically encountered to create a rich feature content. Selectable balanced inputs make the C 298 a natural for studio use or connection to High End Preamps and Processors. These inputs include a trim control useful for matching to other components. A line out allows further addition of power on the same channel for additional speakers or subwoofers. Auto-sense with selectable threshold is perfect for automating complex systems or hiding the amp out of sight in a cabinet. We even include a Ground Lug that can be very useful for eliminating ground loops and noise in complex multi-unit systems. Added to all this connectivity is a Bridge Switch that turns the C 298 into an amazingly powerful Monobloc Amplifier. Start with one and add a second C 298 later when you upgrade your speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGetting the Basics Right\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is surprising how many seemingly advanced products in the market today often miss many of the most basic requirements for satisfying performance. Low noise circuits, accurate channel balance, proper input and output impedance characteristics, high overload margins and stability with difficult speaker loads. NAD starts by getting these things precisely right and advances from there. Our line inputs, both Balanced and Single-ended, can accommodate all kinds of analog source components by offering ideal input impedance characteristics with linear ultra-low-noise buffer amplifiers to prevent any sonic degradation caused by inappropriate loading of the source device. These are all details you can hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSophisticated Power\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNAD has moved away from the old fashioned and very power hungry linear power supplies and Class AB output stages that waste nearly half of the energy consumed producing heat rather than sound. Instead we have developed even better performing circuits based on switch mode power supplies and Class D output stages. Once thought to be inferior to traditional topologies, NAD's advanced work in this area has created some of the best performing amplifiers regardless of basic design principle. These new designs are very linear over a wide bandwidth and provide consistent performance into all speaker loads, providing a dramatic advance over previous models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe generously dimensioned power supply easily allows for 185 watts continuous and over 570 watts instantaneous power for short term musical transients. Innovative Asymmetrical Power-Drive fully utilizes every last watt available with its vast reserves of dynamic power available to accurately reproduce musical transients without distortion or compression. It can operate with any AC mains voltage from 100v to 240v and provides pure DC power to all the various stages of the C 298.
