I am currently running an Arcam A65+ into a P85. My speakers don't support bi-amping, so I have been considering a new MF X-pre v3 which can be found cheaply. My intention is to run it into the P85 until I can afford some good monoblocks.
I wouldn't get a chance to hear the MF though as I have to order it from another city. I am prepared to take the risk as the V3-pre seems to be reasonably well regarded and should be an upgrade. Has anyone compared the two or is able to speculate on the differences apparent between using the A65+ as a pre-amp vs the MF?
