Oh I wish I could make my mind up.
I've been considering a S/H Arcam Alpha 8r or 9, but then read about dodgy selector switches etc.
I've had my current Alpha 5 plus for 15 years now so I'm now thinking sod it, I'll buy a new 'un and it'll probably see me out. So, I'm looking at a new FMJ A18 now.
Question is, it'll be fitting into a slot in a wooden cabinet with a Blu ray player and a BT Vision box so there's not much airflow in there. Does the A18 produce much heat? Is it possible to get any any feet or spacers to sit on top of the A18 to aid airflow? The alternative is new furniture and Mrs Duffer would NOT be having any of that in addition to the purchase of the amp.
