Drawing on the many years of amplifier design experience at Arcam, the P429 uses the best quality components and engineering practice to develop a product that will give many years of musical pleasure and reliable service.

With a class G amplifier, toroidal transformer based power supply, acoustically damped chassis, complementary transistor output stages, exceptionally low levels of distortion and noise the P429 is capable of reproducing music with all its original authority and detail.

Rest assured you will be hearing the music just as the artist intended.

The P429 has been designed to offer impressive flexibility for a variety of uses as well as using their latest generation class G topology that is both clever and efficient.

During normal operation, distortion is measured in less than one part per million so that this massive power is delivered with total control and finesse.

AV enthusiasts will love the ability to add matching class G amplification to their AVR550 / AV850 for a full 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos setup.

Stereo fans will appreciate the bridged mode of operation, which allows up to 270W power output per channel.

Installer-friendly features like IP & RS232 control, 12V In/Out triggers, individual channel trims make the P429 the perfect choice for custom installations.

There have been great strides made in improving audio sources and loudspeakers in recent years and the time is right to match them in the field of amplifier design.

This ground breaking amplifier is a “must audition” amplifier for music lovers who understand that power is nothing without control.

Brand

Arcam

Arcam Arcam been developing and making CD players for almost 30 years, and for 40 years the descendants of the amplifier with which the company started in consumer electronics, and as far back as 1995 expanded into home cinema electronics, developing a world-class reputation for making some of the best-sounding AV electronics

HOME CINEMA - UK ENGINEERING

In home cinema they have also developed their own DVD players and, more recently, Blu-ray players from scratch here in the UK, engineering them using  decades of experience in CD players to ensure they play music as well as they do movies, delivering better all-round performance than other brands' products. Hard-won techniques for preserving and handling the most delicate signal and reproducing music with all its subtleties, nuances and excitement intact are now in our blood. We know that as audio moves on from CD to even higher definition formats, we're determined our products should continue to serve the music faithfully and deliver maximum enjoyment to the listener.
