High-end hybrid valve receiver with powerful output stage and Bluetooth® aptX™

The Magnat MR 780 combines elegantly audiophile hi-fi sound with substantial power reserves: Used in the pre-amp stage are high-quality selected and extensively burnt-in ECC 81 valves, ensuring that well-loved, warm sound. The output stage relies on a low-emission toroidal transformer and provides an impressive 100 watts of RMS power per channel at 4 ohms. Added to this is a virtually overwhelming range of connection options for analogue and digital sources, including Bluetooth aptX. Where necessary, a high-quality Wolfson D/A converter takes care of the signal transformation with up to 192 kHz and 24 bits. A phono pre-amplifier for MM systems, an integrated DAB/DAB+ tuner as well as an FM receiver and a large number of further details make the MR 780 one of the best stereo receivers in this price category. This high standard is clear from the very first glimpse. You can see immediately from the full-metal enclosure with its solid, brushed aluminium front panel that this unit belongs in the high-end range.

What do trade magazines say about this product?

Audiophile sound thanks to the tube pre-amp stage

The MR 780 follows the unique Magnat hybrid concept. The pre-amp stage is taken care of by two selected ECC 81 tubes that give the entire system that well-known warm and audiophile tube sound. In addition, the powerful, discretely designed transistor power amp delivers 100 watts RMS power per channel at 4 ohms.

Highest flexibility through a huge variety of connection options

The MR 780 receives signals via five high-level inputs or two optical and two coaxial digital inputs. A 3.5 mm jack input is also available as well as wireless connectivity via Bluetooth 4.0, including aptX. The wide range of connectivity options is rounded off by a particularly high-quality phono pre-amp as well as a USB audio 2.0 input.
