Design & Build

Industrial design is an area where the M3si stands out from its peers in the sub-$2000 price class. It is thoroughly clean, modern and thoughtfully laid out. It has a memorable face without any features that could be distracting. Just a handful of input selector buttons flank the massive volume knob in the center of the faceplate. Befitting its prominence, the volume knob is a pleasure to use, with satisfying resistance and control.

The Taiwan-assembled unit is constructed of a thick gauge steel chassis with a solid 5mm brushed aluminum faceplate. The fit and finish are wonderful throughout, especially considering the price point. I could not detect any hint of flex, creaking or play in the chassis or when using the connectors on the rear panel.

Overall the design of the M3si is perfectly aligned with its purpose: delivering music. While Musical Fidelity is not breaking new technological ground with this unit, the execution feels top-notch. I feel confident the M3si could stand up to a lifetime of wear and tear.
