Cambridge Audio AXR85-85 Watt Separate HiFi Stereo Reciever Featuring Built-In Phono Stage FM/AM Radio and Bluetooth 5.0 - Lunar Grey

Product Information

Even though we have already mentioned it, we would like to emphasize it again: of course, the new Cambridge Audio AXR100D can be extended with further solutions from the Cambridge Audio AX Series, above all with the two CD players in the product range, the Cambridge Audio AXC25 and Cambridge Audio AXC35. IMPORTANT: Presets are stored separately for each waveband, meaning that there are 15 preset slots available for FM stations, and 15 preset slots available for AM stations. Consult the instructions of the Bluetooth device to connect to AXR. When successfully connected the display will show your device name. Use the ' Skip / Scan' button or ' Preset' buttons to select the preset location for the station to be stored to.

Note: For ease of tuning on first time use, we recommend that you set the AXR to ‘Auto’ mode. Press the Mode/Store button on the front of the unit. This button cycles through Preset, Auto and Manual, modes.

At the heart of the new Cambridge Audio AXR100D is a stereo integrated amplifier, which should have sufficient power reserves to operate even stand-alone speaker systems, in any case fine compact bookshelf speaker systems, effortlessly. Two times 100 Watts are available here at loudspeaker systems with an impedance of 8 Ohm. A typical living room is thus easily provided with adequate sound, and should even more bass be desired, an additional subwoofer can of course be controlled via a corresponding pre-amplifier output. To enter the audio menu. Press either the Menu button on the front of the unit or on the remote control. When using a banana plug, make sure the speaker terminals are completely tightened before inserting the plug.some of these web prices are cheaper than in-store, so please mention that you've seen these offers online) Once you have stripped the outer insulation of the cable and twisted the wires as indicated below, securely connect these to your banana plugs, remove the dust cap from the end of the speaker terminal and push the plug in as far as possible without applying excessive force. Naturally for a receiver, the 85-watt AXR85 has FM/AM tuners, which is bolstered by a built-in Bluetooth receiver, three analogue RCA inputs, a phono stage and a 3.5mm aux input. Recording, subwoofer and 6.3mm headphone outputs are correct and present too. More uniquely at this price, the AXR85 boasts two zones for driving two pairs of speakers simultaneously. The diagram below shows how to connect the AXR to an active subwoofer via the LFE/Sub input on the subwoofer.

Select the Tuner source using the FM/AM button on the front of the unit, or directly by pressing the FM or AM buttons on the remote.

What Makes Us Different?

We experiment with both the amplifier’s phono stage and its headphone output and we’re pleased to report the sound stays consistent with the same bold character traits shining through. It’s easy for a manufacturer to take its eye off the ball here, but credit to Cambridge Audio for making sure there’s no sacrifice.
