Arcam A5 Integrated Amplifier Black

ARCAM A5 is the first integrated amplifier to join the new Radia line. The "A" suffix in ARCAM stands for Amplification: and this is the brand's pinnacle of expertise. ARCAM A5 embodies over 45 years of amplifier design and manufacturing, dating back to their first product in 1976, the Cambridge A60 A&R amplifier. Both the components and the materials used have been carefully analyzed and reviewed to ensure the highest sound quality.

To be able to listen to music immediately, without having to connect cables, ARCAM A5 also includes Bluetooth with Qualcomm AptX Adaptive technology. In this case, the audio is in 24-bit high definition from both phones and tablets, regardless of playback. In addition to receiving, it also has the ability to transmit the Bluetooth signal, for example to connect wireless headphones and listen to your favorite program without disturbing other members of the household. High-resolution audio is also available via the rear-panel hardwired digital audio inputs.

As with every ARCAM integrated amplifier, special attention has been paid to the built-in MM phono stage, ensuring maximum involvement even from vinyl records, which are increasingly popular on our market.
