Motive, Radia
The Arcam A25 integrated amplifier, part of the new Arcam Radia range, delivers 100 Watts of Class G amplification, ensuring low distortion and superior control as well as louder volumes. It supports AptX Bluetooth for 24-bit Hi-Res wireless streaming and offers multiple inputs for seamless connectivity. With a 5th generation Class G amplifier design, the A25 provides cleaner, more precise sound while maintaining Arcam's smooth, richly detailed sonic profile, enhancing clarity, power, scale, and precision.
Thanks to the 100 watts of G class amplification from the Arcam Radia A25 integrated amplifier, the Neat Motive SX1 speakers are able to sustain higher volumes without distortion and hardness, it just sounds effortless. For even greater appeal, the amp has a wide range of analog, digital, and wireless HD connectivity, making it easy to include all your music sources. But that’s not all. Stunning new aesthetics make this amp stand out from the crowd, with a striking design that shines above its rivals.
With the additional bass units in the Neat Motive SX1, driven by the Arcam A25 integrated amplifier, there is enhanced separation of frequencies and greater control over the sound, resulting in improved clarity. With that extra power, and control, you will get a more holographic sound that is fuller, richer and clearer. The larger cabinets also ensure that the speakers can fill more space, making them ideal for larger rooms.
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.

Additionally, it supports analog sources with three RCA phono inputs, ensuring compatibility with devices like FM tuners.
Tall But Still Compact
Although the Neat Motive SX1 is the taller of the two floorstanders in the Motive SX range, it remains a compact and elegant model that blends discreetly into any living room. Its performance rivals larger and more expensive models, making it a standout choice for audiophiles seeking high-quality sound in a sleek design.
Driver Configuration
The SX1 uses a two-and-a-half-way configuration, with the bass/midrange driver and tweeter operating within a sealed enclosure. The sub-bass drive unit is housed separately in a reflex-tuned section below. The bass reflex port is fitted to the bottom panel of the cabinet and is vented through an outlet in the stylishly sculpted MDF plinth. Despite its compact dimensions, the Motive SX1 accurately reproduces genuinely low bass notes with spacious and well-focused stereo imagery.
Innovative Tweeter
The tweeter is a new and upgraded unit used throughout the Motive SX range, featuring a huge screened magnet assembly and a 25mm inverted anodized aluminum dome. This type of tweeter is typically found in more expensive high-end loudspeakers, making it an exceptional inclusion in the Motive SX designs.
