DistortedVision:You can biamp your A85 with a P90. All Arcam amps are gain matched and I had this same combination in my previous system. Andrew Dutton Head of Engineering at Arcam and John Dawson, Managing Director of Arcam both say you can in this thread:
Hope this helps.
Ah, it has indeed, much appreciated.
I knew the amps were gain matched, and I knew it would feasible to use P90 with A85 as I'd spoken to Arcam about it. I just wasn't sure if it was a good idea!
What I was wary of was the fact that some reviewers and consumers had mentioned supposed performance differences between the A85 and A90. I wondered if this performance difference in the integrated amps would be applicable to the power amps too.
I guess not if Mr. Dawson says they're pretty much one and the same.
Thanks again!
