I've bought many Arcam pieces over the years. I've tried other stuff but keep coming back. Right now I have the CD33, A32/P35 integrated amp/amp combo, and the DV79 for DVD/DVD-A. You could say I'm addicted.
Here's why: great build quality, living-room friendly appearance/WAF (I live in an apartment without a dedicated listening area), customer service (frequent hardware and software upgrades), and, most importantly, a purist approach to audio. These guys don't mess around with bells and whistles, but instead focus on key features to make the audio sound excellent. To wit, they refuse to add SACD decoding to their DVD players, since doing so will compromise the design.
The headphone jack on the A32 is pretty good -- it works with both HD650s and RS-1s. I've compared it to a maxed MPX3 and an SR-71 (both sold). I'm getting my GS-1 later this week from Headamp and will post some comparisons soon.
One nice thing about the CD player is that it has two sets of RCA jacks, so it can stay connected to my integrated and head amp at the same time.
