    What is PRO Hi-Fi?

    A mix between Pro-Audio and Hi-Fi? Arcam definitely is not pro-audio!

    Shameless. I liked the following in particular...


    The control of all frequencies is simply stunning...Crisp, tight bass combined with expressive controlled mid, all dressed in the creamy silk perfection of clarity controlled treble...Modern British HI-FI does not get any better than this!

    It features a monster 50watts RMS per channel

    He can probably expect about £200ish on Ebay - they're £450 new (review) and supposedly very good for the money.

    That's it. Such Greatness can not be ignored. Anyone want to swap a NAD S300 for one of these great Arcams?

    ok the pro hi-fi thing is a bit funny but give the guy a break he's trying to get rid of something that's not exactly the best in it's class (twot hi-fi excepted) and so he's giving it a bit of a talk up.

    cheers

    Well he got £270 for it, so it did the job eh? Seriously guys , if you were flogging something on ebay wouldn't you rather make an extra hundred and live with the derision of this esteemed forum :D Especially if you didn't know it existed and probably couldn't care either.
