Product Information
”Packed with features, well made and capable of brilliant audio, the A15 wins yet another award.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2024 award-winner.
Brilliant all-rounder
The Arcam A15 uses a powerful, 80 watt amplifier to make all types of music sound effortless and intensive. For even greater appeal, the amp has a wide range of analogue, digital and wireless HD connectivity, making it easy to include all your music sources. But that’s not all. Stunning new aesthetics make this amp stand out from the crowd, with a striking design that shines above its rivals.
The power to please
Boasting 60% more power than the A5 model, Arcam’s A15 takes music dynamics to the next level. The increased power makes the A15 more suitable for larger spaces and less efficient speakers. As well as sustaining higher volume levels, the A15 also delivers a deeper, richer sound at all volume levels.
Perfectly balanced sound
Painstakingly developed, the Arcam A15 features a highly optimised Class AB amplifier. With new components and materials, the sound quality is cleaner and more precise, while still retaining the smooth and richly detailed sonic signature that has made Arcam so popular over the past decades. As well as delivering more power than the A5 model, the A15 also produces lower distortion, giving you a more natural and true-to-life sound.
A treat for your turntable
Much more than just a box-ticking exercise, the Arcam A15’s built-in phono stage makes a top quality connection for your turntable. Suited to turntables with MM (Moving Magnet) cartridges, the high spec phono stage draws a deep seam of information from your vinyl, letting you hear subtle details from the music that might previously have been missed.
Stream from your smartphone in Hi-Res audio
For simple yet high quality music streaming, the A15 features Bluetooth with Qualcomm AptX Adaptive technology. When used with a compatible source device, this delivers up to 24-bit Hi-Res music streaming, giving you better than CD-quality, from a wireless connection.
Connect your headphones – Bluetooth or wired
The A15 welcomes all types of headphones, however they connect. Two-way Bluetooth connectivity lets you pair the amp with your Bluetooth headphones, giving you the freedom of movement that only wireless connectivity brings. Alternatively, the A15 also has a facia-mounted headphone socket for any type of wired headphones.
Connect all your digital and analogue sources
Featuring a built-in DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor), the A15 effortlessly connects with your digital audio sources. Two coaxial and one optical input let you connect your TV, games console and digital music source. Coming from a top quality brand, the ESS DAC maximises your digital music’s full potential and should provide a boost in sound quality over using the analogue inputs. For analogue sources, however, such as an FM tuner, there are also three RCA phono inputs.
Sleek new style
As part of Arcam’s Radia series, the A15 looks slicker than any previous Arcam amp. With just two dials and subtle illumination, the amp strikes the perfect balance in catching the eye without distracting from the sound. The all-aluminium casing includes the volume and input dials, giving a high quality look and feel. A compact remote control is also included.
Boost your listening pleasure, with the versatile Arcam A15.
