    I don't know. It makes you wonder when a company discontinues the preamp version of a series but keeps the integrated and power amp in production.

    Maybe this is why Cambridge discontinued the 851E:

    "The 840E's resistor/relay volume attenuation used under-spec'd (power/heat) resistors that result in a "runaway/shorting" volume level - complete with accompanying pops, crackles, and a hellish fear of our beloved hifi (amps/speakers)."

    Maybe Lucas (the Prince of Darkness) OEM'd the electronics.
