The Arcam integrated amplifier A15 has the signature Arcam sound. Like the more affordable A5, the A15 retains the signature Arcam sound; it is full-bodied and smooth but delivers greater clarity of sound with more power, scale, and precision. Boasting 60% more power than the A5 model, Arcam’s A15 takes music dynamics to the next level, and paired with the PMC Prodigy1 bookshelf speakers, you will get a big sound with more detail, all in a more compact space.
The Arcam A15 uses a powerful, 80-watt amplifier to make all types of music sound effortless and intensive. 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.
Paired with the award winning PMC Prodigy1 Bookshelf/Standmount Speakers, you will get an outstanding audio experience for small to medium-sized rooms. Drawing from PMC's acclaimed nearfield monitors used in recording and broadcast studios worldwide, the Prodigy1 reveals intricate details, immersing you in the original performance regardless of space limitations.
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.

Ample power
Outputting 80 watts per channel, the A15 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 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.
Inside the Prodigy1
PMC's commitment to delivering natural, uncolored sound is evident in the Prodigy1. The Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) bass-loading is a cornerstone of PMC's renowned sound quality. ATL intelligently and efficiently utilizes the energy generated by the bass driver, outperforming traditional ported or sealed box designs. The addition of PMC Laminair airflow technology further refines ATL, enhancing clarity, timing, and eliminating unwanted air noise.
A Compact/Bookshelf Speaker
