Cambridge Audio AXR85
Stereo Receiver
£399
A powerful, fully equipped amp pairs with a quality tuner to deliver a stereo receiver with true hi-fi credentials – the Cambridge Audio AXR85 delivers it all.
One box does it all
Packing a powerful amp with Bluetooth connectivity and a quality tuner radio, the Cambridge Audio AXR85 is your one-stop solution to all-inclusive stereo playback.
Punchy performer with two sets of speaker outputs
Packing a hefty 85 watts per channel, the AXR85 has enough grunt to fill larger rooms with clean, effortless sound. Twin speaker outlets mean you can have a pair of speakers in another room or spread four speakers around a large, open-plan space.
Your whole system connected – including a turntable
Featuring a phono input (for turntable with MM cartridge), the AXR85 is the perfect amp for a vinyl based system. It doesn’t end here, though. Four RCA phono inputs are ideal for a CD player, streamer, games console and even your TV set-top box. There’s also a 3.5mm AUX input at the front that’s handy for temporary connections – such as an MP3 player or smartphone. For more bass, you can add your choice of active subwoofer via the dedicated output.
Built-in Bluetooth
With Bluetooth built-in, streaming music from your smartphone, tablet or laptop is just a click away. Pair with your device and effortlessly stream your stored music and popular music streaming services such as Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music.
Tune in
Covering all the bases, the Cambridge Audio AXR85 also features a built-in FM/AM radio. With 30 presets, you can quickly call up all your favourite stations. The RDS (Radio Data System) FM tuner displays the radio name and gives other display information.
Sleek new style
The entire Cambridge AX Series has a fresh new look that catches the eye. The Lunar Grey front panel contrasts with the black top and sides, making it ‘pop’ into crisp focus. The cool white display and logical layout give a timeless style that’s typical of the Cambridge Audio brand. The teardrop profile with wedge foot mirrors the CX Series, showing a strong family link between ranges.
Save on space and build on convenience and style, with the Cambridge Audio AXR85 stereo receiver.

Great service. Fine product. Very happy.
Literally just set this up and it is great not to have to give my amp a whack to get the left channel working.
The old one was a Cambridge Audio 35wpc amp (bought from Richer Sounds, Fulham Rd in April 2011)
The extra power and built-in tuner are great to have.
All looking great so far.

Simon in the Glasgow Store helped me choose an Amp before Christmas and then after Christmas we went ahead and bought it - great advice and guidance throughout.

Love this Product
I bought this to replace an aging Arcam amp, thinking the Bluetooth and phono MM pre amp would declutter my system but actually did that and improved the sound 100%. Crystal clear high to mid range and punchy bass, very pleased with this ARX85 and oh it arrived next day, bonus

A proper hi-fi shop on our doorstep
We wanted to buy our son a decent record deck for Christmas, but didn’t want to break the bank. Alex at Tunbridge Wells was super helpful, and was brilliant at explaining the options. He obviously had real knowledge of the tech, not just what the brochures say! We ended up buying an Audio Technica deck with built in pre amp, and a stand alone Cambridge Audio amp. They both seem like very decent products at a reasonable price.
