Arcam A25 (Black)
Stereo Amplifier
£1,499
The flagship Arcam A25 delivers truly powerful sound, the widest range of connectivity and luxury styling to create an amplifier that’s packed full of talent.
Talented in every area
The Arcam A25 features the company’s unique Class G amplifier for incredibly powerful and efficient sound. It’s also Arcam’s best-connected amplifier, with a wide range of inputs including a USB-C interface that’s exclusive to the A25 model. An all-aluminium casing, with backlit aluminium dials gives this amp the luxury aesthetic to match its premium sound quality.
Power and control from the Class-G amp
Drawing on over 45 years’ experience in amps, Arcam have set a new class standard for sound quality. Using a unique Class-G amplifier gives the A25 generous power and incredibly low distortion. With 100 watts per channel, this is Arcam’s most powerful Radia amplifier. This means deep, powerful bass and punchy sound, even in larger rooms and with low efficiency speakers.
Perfectly balanced sound
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.
A treat for your turntable
Much more than just a box-ticking exercise, the Arcam A25’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.
Hi-Res sound via USB-C input
Unique to the A25 model, this Arcam amplifier features a USB-C input. Connect laptop, PC or Mac and enjoy Hi-Res music streaming to the highest quality standards. Using an upgraded ESS DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor), the A25 supports DSD (Direct Stream Digital) for the widest choice of Hi-Res music format support.
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 A25 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 A25 also has a facia-mounted headphone socket for any type of wired headphones.
Connect all your digital and analogue sources
Featuring a premium quality, built-in DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor), the A25 optimises the sound from your digital audio sources. USB-C, two coaxial and one optical input let you connect your computer, TV, games console and digital music source. For analogue sources, such as an FM tuner, there are also three RCA phono inputs.
Sleek new style
As part of Arcam’s Radia series, the A25 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.
Enjoy Arcam’s ultimate sound quality, with the A25.

Arcam amp and CD player - perfect combination :-)
After fifteen years or so of heavy use, my Cambridge Audio CD player needed replacing - the eject motor had failed, which is hardly surprising I suppose after thousands of operations!
And I decided to upgrade the amplifier too, but hang on to my Kef 5 series speakers.
I've always bought my hi-fi and tv stuff from Richer Sounds, though having moved house it was the store in Reigate this time.
I booked at appointment so I could have plenty of time for a good discussion about what I was looking for.
Robert (at the Reigate store) was super helpful, knows his stuff and having discussed various options he recommended the Arcam A25 amp, along with the Arcam CD5 player.
I upgraded the cables to the speakers too. All in all, a big upgrade on what i had before.
It all looks great - and sounds even better, very clean and crisp.
i could have spent more I guess (or less!) but I am very happy with the end result.
I hadn't heard of Arcam before, so if I hadn't had the advice from Robert at Richer in Reigate, it's not a brand I would have gone for.
Very happy that I did though - and with a six year warranty, I have peace of mind too.
All I need now to really improve the quality of the listening experience is an upgrade to my ears!

New dimension to the music.
Decided to upgrade from Arcam FMJ19 and so glad I did. The A25 brings a new dimension to the music with me hearing subtle changes in the music and harmonies that I had not appreciated before. It is not cheap but I feel it is £1500 well spent. Now thinking about the CD5!

Great service from Tom at Lichfield
Tom at the Lichfield store was brilliant very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable during our search for a new upgrade music system. He gave us a lot of advice and was very willing and patient, spending time demonstrating speakers, amp and other components we required. He quickly picked up on our musical tastes and chose a great selection of music for the demonstrations
We left the store very happy with our purchases, and are very pleased after trying out the new system. Brilliant
