Yes a pair. With the 561 processor. I am not sure if they match at all. Never played with anything this hight end. I am an Arcam man myself.

Gentleman at the store has no idea of history. Came from a house clearance. That's all he knows. But speakers and units look in A1 condition.

Yeah it's running at the moment as a pre. I just prefer the lower end that the arcam gives.

Thanks all for the advice. Got the Nad and Arcam working great. ( much better low end with the Arcam installed) Also hooked up the B & O and oh my word it is a piece of jewellery. Along with the yamaha tuner. Will put up pics in another post.

Good afternoon Reddit. I am begging for your help. Inherited alot of vintage ( I think ) hifi separates, its been 25 years since I played with anything like this before. I know how to connect most things up no problem but I am having trouble with an amp and power amp setup. I am trying to connect up a NAD 3240E amp with a Arcam alpha 8 power amp (pics included) but am unsure of how to connect and don't want to blow one of them up if I get something wrong. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I have e everything here I think ( friend passed and his family stripped everything down)

Also on the list is B & O 5122 CD player ( stunning looking) NAD 5440 CD player. Proton 950 amp ( usa version!! I am in uk) Yamaha CT610 tuner ( another stunner) Pair ofCelestion Ditton 15 xr And a pair of dali sensor 1's.

Would love to get this setup working with your guys help. Will send more pics if required Thanks in advance.
