andye2004 Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) Further information: Arcam Alpha 9 integrated and Alpha 9P power amps for sale. Integrated amp comes complete with original packaging and original remote in box and unused. 9P original packaging is not available. Items purchased in UK ~2003 but are still in fantastic working order. I've been using the integrated as a power amp, with both bi-amping a pair of PMC FB1+ to great effect. Disclaimer: IEC's have had original UK 13 amp plugs replaced by myself with standard Oz plugs. Splitting available - pm me please. Photos: Edited October 20, 2020 by andye2004 3
Prince Planet Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Arcam's Alpha series amps are very robust, well designed and sound great. I found bi-amping (with Arcam Alpha 10 Int and power combo which are very similarly rated to these 9s) made a significant improvement used with the original Monitor Audio Studio and Jamo Concert series speakers. I also have the Arcam Alpha 6 which is a great little amp. 2
andye2004 Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 Correction to original description: Amps were purchased Feb 2001 my wife reliably informs me. I'm making the correction here as I don't want to blind-side anyone who may have read original description.
scobb Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 The Arcam Alpha amps are great! Built like tanks (other than the plastic face) so even at this age I wouldn’t worry about reliability. I recently sold a p10 and it sounded, to my ears, more pleasing than the, more modern and more expensive, Simaudio and Marantz power amps I was also selling. 1
