Arcam AVA35 AV Amplifier
For those who refuse to compromise, the AVA35 represents the summit of home cinema and musical performance. This is not just an amplifier—it’s ARCAM’s most advanced integrated AV solution, designed for true connoisseurs of sound.
Expertly engineered in Cambridge, UK, the AVA35 harnesses our signature Class G amplification, a technology unique to ARCAM and revered for its ability to deliver superior power, lower crossover distortion, and unmatched musicality. Combined with the same high-performance DAC architecture found in our flagship stereo systems, the AVA35 ensures every note and every cinematic moment is rendered with breathtaking clarity and emotional impact.
For the ultimate in flexibility, the AVA35 introduces matrix channel assignment, allowing you to reallocate channels freely for the most personalised and immersive configurations. Whether it’s music, movies, gaming, or sport, this amplifier adapts to your vision of perfection.
With nine channels of Class G power, 16-channels of Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced and AURO-3D processing, and Dirac Live room correction, the AVA35 transforms your space into a world-class listening environment.
At ARCAM, sound quality isn’t just a promise—it’s our obsession. The AVA35 is the pinnacle of rigorous testing and listening sessions, more than deserving of the ARCAM name.
And with a vibrant 6.5" colour display, intuitive menus, and the Radia App, control is effortless—because the experience should be as seamless as the sound.
