Sources such as DVD, Blu-Ray, set-top boxes, iPodsŪ and games machines are all accommodated with ease. The AVR600 is available in black or silver finishes.
Using 6 layer PCBs and ultra high precision digital audio and video circuits, the internal design of the AVR600 is the culmination of thousands of man-hours of research and development work by Arcam’s world-class design team and represents the largest project ever completed by the company. More.
ARCAM's most talented A/V receiver is finally in our grasp. It took a while, but the wait was worthwhile.
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.
The AVR600’s discrete styling hides a huge seven channel, 120wpc power amplifier and some of the most advanced audio and video processing ever seen in a high performance AV receiver.
The AVR600 decodes the very latest Dolby Digital+, Dolby TrueHD, 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.

Cake-and-eat-it audio products are rare and the claims for them are predominately marketing bluster. Purist two channel audio does not generally mix with home cinema. To underline this, on this site, the AV stuff is mainly tucked away discreetly.
Whilst previous generations of ARCAM home theatre receivers have had a reputation for being 'good with music too', truth is, they have still been seriously compromised for the true music enthusiast. The AVR600 was launched just under a year ago and it represented a big step forward in facilities, audio and video processing. Surprisingly, it managed to do this with proper 'music hi-fi' performance that has never before been available from an AV receiver. The reviewing press have been won over.
You really can judge this as a good stereo amplifier. Think A38 with more power, additional features and five spare channels.
Now we have the new AV888 processor and P777 power amplifier and these promise to push the envelope further still. These are ARCAM's best and most sophisticated ever multi-channel products and, as one of ARCAM's new high end 'Platinum' Dealers, we are proud to be able to supply them and to have them on demonstration. The facilities in the AV888 are extensive, so you might as well read about them on ARCAM's own website.
Reading about it is one thing, experiencing the performance is something else and we will be happy to set some time aside in our Cinema Room to allow you to experience high performance audio and video.
Give us some notice and we can even rustle up some popcorn!
