Adding an Accuphase A-46

I'm considering upping the power of my Accuphase E-560 integrated (30W pure class A) by adding the A-46 (45W) power amp. The E-560 would then operate as a preamp.

Has anyone tried this configuration? Would the additional 15W make a signficant difference in controlling excess bass and adding body and detail to the sound? Speakers are ProAc Response K6.

Many thanks.

Hi Paul,

I am not irritated and upset in the slightest. I just was wondering how you formed your opinions. Too many here on the internet just talk a bunch of trash without real life experience with the product.

Having said that, I appreciate your thorough and detailed explanation.

Getting back to Class A and Class A/B, if the differences between A and A/B are not the significant, then why Class
A. It certainly sounds better to me!

No problem! You're welcome! Yes, keep doing the research and auditioning. Don't rush in too quickly. You can get burned that way.
