Upgrade Arcam AVR350 to AVR360?

[ROB2009]

Hi....Just wondering if anyone has done a comparison between an Arcam AVR350 and the new AVR360? Would it be a noticable upgrade... I have a Sony BDPS5000SE which decodes the latest sound formats connected to the Arcam directly using the multi-channel connections. I listen to music through a Sonos "connect" (and dac) connected in analoge via the stereo direct facility. any thoughts / experiences appreciated Rob

Hi there again Rob
IMO. You should hold tight until you can hear an AVR 450, which Arcam says can match, or even better the AVR 600.....can't confirm this though.

Hi Cno....glad to see you're still sharing the wisdom

I'm in no rush but my local dealer is offering the AVR360 for £750 and the AVR400 for £1000

I'll wait, was just curious really...

Hi Cno,

Can I ask where you heard this and when it is out ? I didn't realise their were new Arcam av amps on the horizon ? I certainly have not read anywhere that their is ?

Thanks

Ok - ignore this - just watched the Arcam press release video on YouTube - time to start saving again me thinks.
