Product Description

Additional Information

Arcam has built a world-class reputation for phenomenal audio and video performance through meticulous engineering and finely honed design expertise.The AVR600 AV receiver represents a tour-de-force of Arcam’s design skill and technical prowess. While most receivers are designed to provide an overwhelming list of specifications but are short on outright performance, the AVR600 is focused on the complete experience. Never before has an AV receiver delivered such a fine balance of state of the art sound and video processing backed up by an all encompassing technical specification. Fully equipped for the high definition world, the AVR600 decodes the very latest Dolby Digital+, DolbyTrueHD, DTS High Resolution Audio and DTS HD Master Audio streams with phenomenal precision. With well over 100 input, output and control connections from simple analogue I/O to high speed HDMI, the AVR600 is fully equipped to deal with the most demanding of home cinema systems or custom installations. Sources such as DVD, Blu-Ray, set-top boxes, iPods® and games machines are all accommodated with ease.
