A49 Arcam

Arcam was my introduction into better audio; my Alpha 9 integrated and power amps are now in the closet; my CD sources remain the Alpha 9 CD player and the Alpha MCD multi-disc player. I have the most regard for Arcam; can't wait to see reviews of the new top-of-the-line.

I am happy to read that you are please with Arcam gear Jeff. However, that does not answer the OP's question and neither does it put Arcam in the same league with the big hi-end companies.

Paul,
I'm not in any way implying that Arcam would be in the same league as Accuphase; I was only trying to tell the OP that we should be getting more information about the A49 (and C49, P49) soon.

I keep checking the Arcam website, and there's no information yet.

I will leave it to others to chime in on the Accuphase/Arcam comparison, since I have no experience with Accuphase, other than being familiar with its high-end reputation.

Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff, I merely wanted to steer the discussion in the right direction, i.e. not to talk
about A49 but about A49 vs. E-460. I see now, though, that while the OP has
asked in his initial post about A49 vs. E-490, the title of the thread is A49.
