P38

The A38 and P38 design project had a simple goal; to develop the best stereo amplifiers Arcam had ever produced. The team looked deep into the basic structure of amplifier design and the result is an amplifier offering a remarkable improvement in fidelity.

The P38 features technologies which practically eliminate thermal modulation and ensure a level of performance that will captivate serious music lovers. New Sanken output devices and improved thermal coupling provide an extremely stable device temperature resulting in startling levels of realism.

The P38's massive toroid based power supply delivers effortless control of loudspeakers with a new low noise XQ core. When used in a pre/power combination with the C31 pre-amplifier the P38, produces a level of sound quality that will enthral all who listen from the keenest music lover to the most demanding audiophile. For a demonstration of the a38’s class leading performance visit your nearest Arcam dealer.
