Need a stereo amplifier for holiday home

    So I'm looking for an amplifier for my house in Sligo. I don't want anything too expensive as it's only a holiday home that we visit about once a month.
    It's also not going with any overly expensive speakers (4 Wharfdales and 2 Arcam Musos). It needs to support 6 speakers though. It's to replace a 20 something year old Sony amp that's gone dodgy and only gives sound from the left speakers.

    I've heard good things about the Cambridge Azur 340 and it's around the price I'm looking for. I'm not sure if it can do 6 speakers though. If there's anything similar that you could recommend though then I'd like to hear.

    Unfortunately, going all the way up to Belfast isn't really an option. Can you post for something not too big like this?

    C14,

    long time no hear!

    I have just the beast for you!

    This Teac receiver is just a cracking Receiver (it includes a tuner)

    It won't just do 6 speakers - it delivers power to 4 separate sets of speakers with superb sound and there is an input dock to connect an iPod. To complete the specification it has an AM/FM stereo tuner with 30 AM/FM preset memory it's a real heavyweight with stunning performance and versatility to match.

    Best of all you can actually zone the outputs so you can play 2 different things at the same time in different zones.

    We have this unit in stock at £199.95 and we would include next-day shipping anywhere in Ireland at that price!

    (Sorry just added this bit! The 340C honestly is not designed to run 6 speakers - if you don't want another fried amp - this one really is the best option for you!)

    Keep me posted if we can assist,

    ATB,

    That's a good deal there. How long would it take to ship? And how can I pay for it (credit card, Paypal etc)?

    C14,

    thanks for the reply - yep it's a really nice amp and it sounds like it would be ideal for your application.

    We can ship it next working day (so if you order Monday AM you will have it Tuesday) - if you would like to PM or email us a contact number we will get you sorted asap,

    Thanks again,
