Cambridge Audio AXR100 AM/FM Stereo Receiver with Bluetooth

Cambridge Audio AXR100 AM/FM Stereo Receiver with Bluetooth - Cambridge Audio

I can't think of a better entry level receiver with built-in DAC to get started in the hobby of Hi-Fi
Cambridge Audio receivers have that consummate British sonic signature, warmth, lushness and musicality. They provide plenty of power and typically have all the analog connections you'll need. The brushed aluminum front plate projects an understated elegance and high level of build quality The beefy toroidal transformer inside the AXR100's class A/B amplifier produces 100 watts per channel, plenty to juice to drive most any speakers you like.

Analog connections
This receiver is built with analog music lovers in mind. There's a dedicated phono stage for connecting a turntable with moving magnet cartridge, and three more RCA inputs for your other components. If you want to use your mobile device as a source, a 3.5mm aux input is conveniently located on the front panel. And built-in Bluetooth® makes it easy to stream music wirelessly from a compatible phone, tablet, or laptop.

The AXR100 features a stereo "record out" output on the back panel, and a mono RCA output lets you hook up a powered subwoofer to provide some extra punch. Two sets of binding posts give you the flexibility to set up A and B speaker pairs, and a front-panel selector makes switching between them easy.
