Description

Arcam AVP45 AV Processor

The Heart of the Ultimate Home Theatre. The Arcam AVP45 is the definitive control centre for high-end home cinema systems, delivering uncompromised performance, flexibility, and sonic precision. Engineered in Cambridge, UK, this advanced AV processor provides 16 channels of immersive audio processing and decoding, forming the foundation for truly reference-level home theatre installations.

16 Channels of Immersive Audio Processing

The AVP45 supports up to 16 channels of high-resolution audio processing, enabling a wide range of immersive speaker layouts for large and complex home theatre systems. Whether you are building a 7.1.4 or 9.1.6 configuration, the AVP45 provides the processing power needed to deliver cinematic realism and expansive sound staging.

Reference DAC Architecture

Built with the same high-performance DAC architecture used in ARCAM’s flagship stereo components, the AVP45 delivers exceptional detail, dynamic range, and musical accuracy. Every soundtrack, dialogue line, and musical passage is reproduced with remarkable clarity and precision.

Balanced Outputs for Maximum Signal Integrity

The AVP45 features balanced XLR outputs for all channels, ensuring the cleanest possible signal path when paired with external power amplifiers. When combined with ARCAM’s PA-series amplifiers such as the PA9 Class G power amplifier, the result is a system capable of extraordinary control and dynamic performance.

Immersive Surround Format Support

Support for Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced, and AURO-3D ensures full compatibility with the latest immersive audio formats. These technologies create a three-dimensional sound field where audio moves naturally around and above the listener.

Matrix Channel Assignment

Matrix channel assignment provides exceptional flexibility by allowing channels to be freely allocated based on your speaker configuration. This allows your system to be tailored precisely to your room, whether it’s designed for movies, gaming, music, or sports viewing.

Dirac Live Room Correction

Dirac Live room correction technology optimises your system to the acoustic characteristics of your listening space. By correcting timing and frequency response across all channels, Dirac Live ensures accurate, balanced sound throughout the room. Optional upgrades include Dirac Live Bass Control and Dirac Live Active Room Treatment.

Streaming and Connectivity

The AVP45 integrates seamlessly with modern streaming platforms, supporting Apple AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and Qobuz Connect. Bluetooth with Snapdragon Sound and Auracast ensures high-quality wireless playback and convenient connectivity.

Radia App Control

The ARCAM Radia App provides intuitive system setup and control from iOS, Android, and Windows devices. It also enables Internet radio, podcast playback, and UPnP streaming from network media libraries.

Elegant Interface and High-Resolution Display

A large 6.5-inch high-resolution colour display provides clear visibility of system status and playback information from across the room. Combined with intuitive menus and a backlit Bluetooth remote control, everyday operation is simple and refined.

Engineered in Cambridge, UK

Every ARCAM component is developed through extensive testing and critical listening sessions to ensure the highest standards of performance. The AVP45 reflects decades of engineering expertise and a relentless commitment to high-fidelity sound.
