Arcam A5 Integrated Amplifier

The ARCAM A5 is for those intimate listening experiences with your favourite music.

With a history spanning more than 45 years in amplifier design, ARCAM's core competence lies in amplification, as demonstrated by their latest product, the A5. Every component and material used has been carefully evaluated to guarantee exceptional sound quality, building upon their first product, the A&R Cambridge A60 amplifier, released in 1976.

So you can play music straight out of the box, the ARCAM A5 includes a Bluetooth solution with Qualcomm AptX Adaptive technology. This provides up to 24-bit HD audio for the best sound quality from your phone or tablet, no matter what you are playing.

The A5 also connects to Bluetooth headphones, so your listening experience can continue sensitively after dark.

High-res audio is included, along with high-resolution digital audio inputs.

Like any ARCAM integrated amplifier, we pay particular attention to the built-in phono stage to ensure your records sound as lush and engaging as possible.
