Do you know what an integrated amp is?

An integrated amp IS a pre and power amp on one chassis.

A power amp here is redundant.

i do know now

thanks didnt knew that, well you learn something new every day

was asking bout that combo because i saw this on arcam website:
The FMJ P35 is the perfect partner to the A32 in a high quality bi-amplified set-up, with suitable bi-wireable loudspeakers.

(fmj p35 is a power amp,a32 is a intergrated amp)

so power amp is good to mix with intergrated amp only if using bi-wireable speakers? does it make a real diffrence?

biamping requires two power amplifiers per channel, or four for a stereo pair. In any event, all four should be the same for passive bi-amping and, yes, they do require two separate inputs on the speaker.
