New Ed sheeran on yellow vinyl,totally awesome and completes my collection (so far!) Also beetles abbey Road and the eagles Hotel california on the way as we speak

I started with an avr setup before moving to amp/source/speakers (traditional stereo setup) and I had a 9.2 onkyo avr. Great build,reliable and easy to use. I picked mine up from a well known bidding site for less than £200 (if memory serves me correctly) but also sony and yamaha are worth a...

I started with a integrated amplifier before swapping to a pre/power setup,honestly? Not much better! Just a way for company's to get you to spend money. I've now moved into vintage equipment and now am running a pioneer setup through my b&w's never been happier. Like most of us would agree...

They are but there's a mona pair of terminals on the back next to the pre in

Not so much bought but used to pay off a debt! So I use a left from my rotel pre out to one power amp and a right to the other? Do they go in the corresponding pre in or the mono in on the arcam power amp? Sorry to be a bit dumb and stupid but this level of tech is all new to me.

Hi all as you might remember I bought my first grownup amplifier in the Rotel ra02. I've purchased a pair of arcam alpha power p8 power amps,the question I have is how do I run the two power amps with my Rotel? I have a pre out on my Rotel and on the arcams I have pre in and momo? If I succeed...
