Nagra is a “degustation” of an infinite variety of sound. Rarely has the audio restitution of an amplifier been so subtle, and so separated from the electronics. If the realism of this unit is so easily managed, t is primarily because the MSA has such an exceptional harmonic wealth.. One immediately enjoys the large sonic field that the MSA produces. The sound field is deep, yet well structured. The listener benefits from a perfect three-dimensional restitution. On this point, the MSA manages to show qualities more often associated with vacuum tubes.


HighFidelity magazine : ..  instruments attract attention because of their beautiful timbre, fantastic microdynamics and outstanding resolution.


The Nagra Classic AMP is the evolution of the Classic Amp.
