The ideal amp for all your music

With a heritage that stretches back to 1976, Arcam’s amplifiers have always been amongst the best in their class for balancing sound with features.

It was way back in the mid 1970s when Doug Brady showcased the first amplifier from Arcam (A&R Cambridge as the company was called then) the A60 which featured in many of our magazine adverts. Since then Arcam has produced many well regarded amplifiers, so the new Arcam A15 has a lot to live up to.

With its wide range of connectivity, sleek style and richly detailed sound, the Arcam A15 continues this success story. From a turntable to a TV and even taking in your smartphone via Bluetooth HD, this Arcam plays it all.

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 such as tablets, phones or PC, this delivers up to 24-bit Hi-Res music streaming, giving you better than CD-quality, from a wireless connection. 

Compact Design with Unique Character

The Monitor Audio Studio 89 speaker is a small, compact, and visually distinct model that exemplifies Monitor Audio’s dedication to uncompromising acoustic performance. Despite its modest size, it incorporates advanced audio technologies, remaining true to Monitor Audio's Transparent Design Philosophy. While Studio 89 is unmistakably part of the Monitor Audio family, it stands out as a unique offering, akin to the flagship Hyphn model. Designed to make a statement both in performance and aesthetics, Studio 89 redefines what a compact speaker can achieve.

Advanced MTM Driver Array

At the heart of Studio 89’s performance is the MTM (Mid-Tweeter-Mid) Driver Array, which provides the benefits of vertical symmetry and increased dynamic capability. The larger surface area of the bass-mid drivers and enhanced voice coils improve in-room interaction with both the floor and ceiling, delivering a more immersive and expansive sound. Acting as a point source, this design creates wide sound dispersion, resulting in a spacious and enveloping audio experience, ensuring the listener is fully immersed in the music.

High-Tech RDT III and MPD III

The Studio 89’s bass-mid driver cones are built using RDT III technology, a three-layer construction for maximum rigidity and strength. A C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminium Magnesium) outer layer is combined with a Nomex honeycomb core and carbon fibre underlay, producing lightweight yet extremely strong drivers. 

This cutting-edge construction ensures precise sound reproduction with minimal distortion. Additionally, the MPD III (Micro-Pleated Diaphragm) high-frequency transducer offers ultra-fast, smooth, and detailed high frequencies, providing a natural and lifelike soundstage.

Transparent Design and Superior Build Quality

Studio 89's Transparent Design Philosophy strikes a balance between aesthetic beauty and technological performance. The slim, compact design optimises acoustic performance, allowing the speaker to produce a much larger soundstage than expected for its size. Internally, the cabinet is carefully braced to enhance structural integrity, further improving sound quality. The bespoke crossover design, developed through extensive testing, ensures the highest signal transfer with minimal distortion, enabling Studio 89 to deliver articulate, powerful, and controlled bass performance.

Bespoke Stand for Optimal Performance

The Monitor Audio Studio 89 can be paired with a custom-designed stand, crafted specifically to enhance the speaker's performance. The stand provides excellent stability, helping the speakers deliver optimal sonic clarity, depth, and rhythm. Whether placed in smaller spaces or larger rooms, the combination of Studio 89 and its bespoke stand ensures that listeners enjoy the full potential of the speaker’s dynamic range and detailed audio delivery, blending functionality with an elegant design that complements any living space.
