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 A5 has a lot to live up to.

With its wide range of connectivity, sleek style and richly detailed sound, the Arcam A5 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 A5 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.

Features

  • ARCAM Class AB amplification - provides brilliant musicality
  • 50W per channel (8 ohms) - powers loudspeakers with ease
  • Bluetooth with aptX™Adaptive Technology - for the best sound with the most convenience
  • Specially selected components and materials - to deliver on sound quality
  • Wired or Wireless Headphones - connect your headphones for quiet listening with, or without wires
  • All new Radia design - Purposeful yet playful
  • MM phono stage - ready for Turntables
  • Hi-Res Digital Audio Inputs
  • Plastic Free Packaging - for easy disposal of natural materials

Ample power

Outputting 50 watts per channel, the A5 has ample power to drive most speakers in a typical living room environment. With vanishingly low levels of distortion, it maintains higher volume levels without sounding strained or harsh.

A treat for your turntable

Much more than just a box-ticking exercise, the Arcam A5’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 A5 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. 

Exceptional Sound Quality and Versatile Use

In line with Neat’s previous stand mount models, the Motive SX3 redefines sound quality expectations for its size and price. Perfect for smaller spaces or as rear speakers in a multi-channel system, the SX3 delivers an open, strikingly clear sound with faithful dynamics and a focused stereo image. Its two-way bass reflex configuration, with the port positioned at the bottom of the rear panel, enhances its performance in any setup.

Superior Design and Components

Despite its compact and elegant design, the Motive SX3 impresses with its agility, astonishing bass, and beautifully open midrange. The speaker features an upgraded tweeter with a large screened magnet assembly and a 25mm inverted anodized aluminum dome, a component typically found in more expensive high-end loudspeakers. This exceptional inclusion underscores the Motive SX3’s superior design and sound quality.

Features

  • Two-way bass reflex configuration
  • Bottom rear panel bass reflex port
  • Upgraded tweeter with large screened magnet assembly
  • 25mm inverted anodized aluminum dome tweeter
  • Open and clear sound with faithful dynamics

Testimonials

Bought some Rega Kyte speakers, stands and chords from DB online and they were incredibly helpful. They updated my delivery address very quickly and recommended a longer cut of cables which they did complimentary. They also noticed I didn’t order with banana plugs so called me back to double check, which I did mean to order. When i had some issues connecting my cables and speakers, I called for some advice which they happily gave. Excellent service and next day delivery to London. Thoroughly recommend.

James F.

Probably one of the best companies in the world. They had to special order in the speakers which took a fair bit of time, which is totally understandable, but they kept in touch with me throughout the entire time with updates (even on a Sunday!!!) and once the speakers were with them, they were dispatched and arrived next day.

The entire sound system that I purchased is insanely good, but still not as good as Doug Brady HiFi!

Guy H.

I have recently purchased a HiFi package with Doug Brady and I could not be more thrilled with my experience with them.
When I walked into the store, I was made to feel welcome and was introduced to some of the products. I produces a list of specific items I was interested in and John was really helpful in showing me these items. He set the system up so I could experience it, he made some suggestions which made the package even better. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him, he was very knowledgeable about the products and gave great advice. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything, or didn't feel that he was upselling at any point. I left with an amazing package and I'd like to thank John and the team for the fantastic experience.

Kaylay L.

It’s now two weeks since I bought home my new system and I wanted to say thanks again for all your help, advice and guidance, not to mention cups of tea. I now have a system that meets all my requirements and sounds fantastic. Special thanks to Jon, who I hope is on the road to recovery from his operation and to Roger, who helped me finalise my choice. The Rega Saturn, Hegel H190V and Dali Rubicon 2 is undoubtedly the best system I have ever owned.
