ARCAM AVR 350 RECEIVER IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND SOUNDING GREAT.This is one amazing sounding piece of hifi equipment. Fantastic even if used as a standard two channel amp that you can also bi-amp. Originally cost 1500 when launched. 7.1 analogue inputs to realise hi-res soundtracks.Here is the Arcam summary of the device. The AVR350 is a high performance 7.1 channel home cinema and music receiver. Offering sound quality far beyond that of ordinary mass market products, the AVR350 will thrill even the most discerning listeners. Arcam has long delivered innovative features in its products and has been a front runner in the adoption of the HDMI interface standard. The AVR350 continues these traditions adopting two-way HDMI switching for automatic selection of digital video source.Audio performance is outstanding with digital or analogue inputs presenting an immersive listening experience from any source. The pre amp stage features ultra high performance OP2134 op amps from Burr Brown in circuits taken from the companys range topping AVP700 pre-amp/processor. In addition, much use has been made of Arcams Mask of Silence technologies including the Stealth Mat previously only seen in its high end FMJ components. a full complement of decoding standards the AVR350 processes Dolby Digital EX, DTS ES, DTS24/96 and the very latest Dolby Pro Logic IIx algorithms. All video switching is HDTV compatible and analogue video stages include up-conversion from composite or s-video to component or RGB to minimize the number of cable runs to a display.Featuring ultra-low distortion power-amps, the AVR350 drives seven 8 ohm speakers with a continuous 100wpc. A direct signal path for stereo and 7.1 multi-channel analogue inputs is included, plus preamplifier outputs for use with external power amplifiers. For second rooms, zone 2 outputs feed stereo line level audio and composite video independently from the main room. In addition two-way RS232 and IR control are built in as standard allowing system software updates.Specifications Analogue Audio100 WPC continuous power output into 4 or 8 ohms loads (all 7 channels driven at 1kHz)Stereo output power over 120 WPC into 4 or 8 ohms, 20Hz 20 kHzHuge toroidal power transformer and 48,000 microfarads of reservoir capacitors ensure ample power for even the most demanding programme material6th and 7th channels are assignable to the front left and right for bi-amplifying suitable loudspeakers, or to zone 2 (5.1 speaker setups)Audiophile quality components for best sound quality, including new OP2134 op-amps, 1% metal film resistors, polypropylene film capacitors, OSCON electrolytic capacitors & double sided, through-plated fibreglass circuit boardsPre amp outputs for all 7 channels and subwooferMulti-channel 7.1 analogue input for DVD-A or SACD sourcesStereo direct mode bypasses and disables all digital processing for 2 channel analogue sources7 stereo analogue inputs (plus tuner); 3 tape outputs (one a tape loop)Zone 2 stereo audio, from stereo analogue inputs or internal tuner.
