ARCAM A5+ amplifier – Best Stereo Amplifier £500-£1000
“The ARCAM A5+ is a delight. It may be the most affordable amplifier in ARCAM’s refreshed Radia range, yet nothing about the A5+ sounds compromised or lacking in any of the key areas required to bring your music to life. Those tweaks may have been subtle, but they’ve added up to something excellent. Versatile, easy to use and a delight to listen to, it’s one of the best amplifiers you’re likely to find at this price”.

ARCAM A15+ amplifier – Best Stereo Amplifier £1000 - £2000
“We’ve always admired the A15’s wide-ranging talents. It is sensibly specified and highly accommodating as far as system matching is concerned. Most of all, it is a musical treat that works well across every musical genre we’ve tried. If you are looking for an amplifier that ticks all the boxes at this price, we haven’t come across a better one than the Arcam A15+”.

ARCAM CD5 CD Player – Best CD Player £1000 - £2000
“There hasn’t been a seriously good, seriously capable and seriously fun CD player of this level in a very long time. The Arcam CD5 changes that: it’s a tremendously talented player that deserves an audition if you’re still holding on to your beloved CDs and want to give them a new lease of life. Play them through the Arcam CD5 and you’ll find yourself playing them over and over again”. For full review see here - Arcam CD5 review: affordable player with enjoyable sound | What Hi-Fi?
ARCAM ST25 – Best Music Streamer £1000 - £2000
“If you’re looking to add a great all-round streamer to your hi-fi system, and it warrants a standalone unit at this price, the Arcam is a fantastic option. Whether it’s internet radio or high-res audio streams, the ST25 presents them in a hugely enjoyable and musical way”.

Highly recommended”. For full review see here - Arcam SA35 review: Arcam's impressive streaming amplifier ticks a lot of boxes | What Hi-Fi?
