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 the latent potential of the Bowers and Wilkins 607 S3 speakers. These compact speakers from the B&W 600 series are known for their classic, engaging sound, making them perfect for filling smaller rooms with rich, detailed audio.
The 607 S3 features a 1" decoupled double dome titanium tweeter and a 5" continuum cone midrange/bass driver. This combination ensures smooth high frequencies and precise reproduction of voices and instruments, bringing out the finer details in your music.
In smaller rooms, the pairing of the Arcam A15 and Bowers & Wilkins 607 S3 provides impactful sound across the volume range. This dynamic duo draws out finer details, immersing you in the music and evoking deeper emotional connections with your favorite tracks.
Layered, beautiful details
The new 607 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 607 S3, experience a more open, neutral performance that delivers voices and instruments with precision and transparency.
