Unlocking More From a Small Package
The Arcam A15 integrated amplifier is renowned for its signature Arcam sound, characterized by a full-bodied, smooth audio experience. Building on the success of the A5, the A15 enhances this with greater clarity, power, scale, and precision. With 60% more power than the A5 model, the A15 takes music dynamics to an entirely new level.
Delivering 80 watts of power, the Arcam A15 harnesses is able to provide more power and control to the Bowers and Wilkins 606 S3 speakers. Already an extremely fun and engaging pair of speakers, with the A15, you'll get more control from the speaker, more powerful bass and a wider, more detailed soundstage.
The 606 S3 speakers, a step up from the 607 S3, offer superior top-end detail and refinement. Leveraging materials and technologies from the 700 Series, their advanced driver reveals subtle details often missed by other speakers. The tube-loading system further isolates the tweeter from cabinet resonances, minimizing distortion.
In medium rooms, the pairing of the Arcam A15 and Bowers & Wilkins 606 S3 provides an extremely engaging and fun sound, that will put a smile on your face. This pairing delivers exceptional sound quality, offering a rich, layered audio experience without dominating the space.
Layered, beautiful details
The new 606 S3 introduces our all-new Titanium Dome tweeter, which combines exceptional resolution and insight with smooth, refined high-frequency reproduction. The result? An accurate and immersive insight into your favourite music.
Precision and transparency
Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum cone avoids the abrupt transitions in behaviour that can impair the performance of a conventional drive unit. With 606 S3, experience a more open, neutral performance that delivers voices and instruments with precision and transparency.
