I am coming back on this issue. The lay-out is now back to the arcam alpha 9+9P combo in the study. Could I use a preamp (say, the delta 110) as a source selector, feeding the alpha 9 through the AUX input. Would that work?

Dear all, What would be the value of a Trio P-7X turntable? I bought it back in 1987 or 88 in Glos and still works perfectly. Hardly used, though. Cheers, P.

Thanks all. I have bought the Alpha 10 and it's brilliant. It sadly reduces the 9P to a second-rate amp. So I got the P25 to pair with the Alpha 10 and combined the 9+9P again for the music in my study.

I'll see. There is a significant difference in power output.

I'll give it a go.

I just wanted to bi-amp. It's a long story. I have the Arcam Alpha 9 + 9p combo bi-amping my linn speakers. they have a CD player and a turntable connected. In my study, I also have a NAD CD player connected to the Cambridge audio A1. Now the source selector of the Alpha 9 is severely damaged...

I do, yes.

I hope it'll work. Thanks.

Can I combine a Cambridge Audio A1 with an Arcam Alpha 9 amps using one as a power amp?

Like what? I have never done this before?

Grand! I really like the sound of the Alpha 9 amps. Pity I cannot get the integrated amp repaired in Belgium. And Brexit caused the UK engineers to stop dealings with continental Europe customers. I am just stating a fact and do not want to start a discussion on the pro and cons of Brexit, or...

The Alpha 9? No one in Belgium feels up to it. I have contacted a number of people who politely declined. The only person able to do it is an ex-BBC chap in a company called ARC. But he does not deal with Continental Europe customers.

Yes, it has. Which techspecs should I be looking at, specifically. The Alpha 9 has 70W output, whereas the A90 has 90W.

I forgot to add that my speakers were a pair of Linn Ninka. P.
