A&R Cambridge A60 slimline stereo amplifier with 5-pin DIN input connections

HiFi Engine description, abridged - The Arcam A60 Amplifier delivers unsurpassed sound quality and performs with its legendary reliability. It is presented in a highly attractive but appealingly restrained cabinet that will continue to please for years to come

This equipment is genuinely in a class of its own. The A60 can accept any magnetic or moving coil cartridge. The cartridge may be optimally matched by the addition of a switchable loading module and, in the case of a low output moving coil cartridge, the internally fitted MC 60 pre-amplifier board

The loudspeakers are connected via heavy duty screw terminals which can accept either bare wires or 4mm plugs. Although the speaker sockets are wired directly to the amplifier outputs to obtain the best possible sound quality, switched outputs are also fitted enabling the speakers to be cut out when headphones are plugged in

Maximum power is typically 40 watts per channel into 8 ohm speakers. Electronic protection in the power output stages safeguards against any incorrect loads or short circuits
