Anyone tried biamping with an Accuphase E-560?

Accuphase E-560 owners - have any of you tried adding a power amp and passively biamping?

If yes, do you have to add an amp with the same rated power (in which case, the second amp would have to be the A-35), or can it be done with say the A-46 or even P-6100?

Or would be better to just add a power amp and use the E-560 as a preamp?

Thanks in advance.

If buying an A-46 or a P-6100 is not a problem, then my advice is to trade in your E-560 for an Accuphase pre-amp (e.g. the recently discontinued C-2410)

I've recently moved from an E-550 integrated to a A-45 & C-2410 combo and it was a solid upgrade, i.e. blacker background, more details and a more stable and focused soundstage.

Probably better bass and frequency response too.

Hi Nvp and Dave_72, thanks for your input. Yes buying either amp is not an issue, but I'd like to keep the E-560 for the time being before swapping it for a dedicated preamp.

Im wondering if I do go the biamping route, would be ok to use either one of these power amps, as they have a higher rated output than the 560. Would you know?

Thanks.
