Not had it on much this weekend due to kids and being out and about. Watched Casino Royale through it last night and it sounded pretty decent. I will write one in a week or two.
 
Got a bloke from Germany very interested in my Maestro Settanta too which is good and 5 watchers on fleabay in 24 hours.
 
how much would a fella need to pay for an arcam a85 integrated and power ? if a fella had them , for sale , hypothetically of course ?

I sold mine for £295 each a year or so ago, but I think I got a bit more than normal. I would think £200-250 each for good ones.

Extremely good for vocals, very nice sound all-round. I loved them.

What sort of music do you like?

The A85 is a good amp, the combo is very good indeed.
 
accoustic , paul weller , cat stephens , also massive attack , gorrilaz , bob marley , rem , billy idol , billy joel , sometimes a little techno , pink floyd , etc ...

i find with my marantz 45 watts , that when i turn up the volume high it doesnt get all that much louder , not like my nad c326bee did , lack of power ? i love good vocals btw ..

The Arcams are perfect for those artists, just perfect. And they are good with electronica like Leftfield.

If you just want one unit, then what about an A32?

Heard an A32/P35 combo with Neat Elite in a shop once and that sounded better than my A85/P85 through Dali Ikon 6.
 
sound joel , ill keep an eye on ebay over the coming weeks and take a punt on one of them

JoelSim,

1. Will you be getting a Leema Antilla II?

2. Is that an Arcam CD Player at the bottom of your rack?

Ronald

No I'm extremely happy with my CDE, great sound, upgraded DAC and digital in. This will almost certainly be my last CDP.

It's a DV79 DVD player.

I've heard that before Joel.
