Three Integrated Amplifiers, CD Player, and High-Resolution Music Streamer Developed to Stay True to ARCAM's Heritage

British brand ARCAM, now part of the Harman Luxury Audio Group, announced the launch of the ARCAM Radia Series of audio products consisting of the ARCAM A5, A15 and A25 integrated amplifiers, the ARCAM CD5 CD player, and the ARCAM ST5 high-resolution streamer.

Roon, the innovative music management, discovery and streaming platform, announced an impressive array of over 25 new Roon Ready and Roon Tested devices from audio brands such as Arcam, Astell&Kern, Bluesound, JBL, Mission, Rotel and more. Additionally, the brand welcomed 5 new partners, including British loudspeaker pioneers Mission, whose new LX Connect all-in-one hi-fi system is Roon Tested. Other new partners include Argon Audio, Avik, Silent Angel and Zidoo (featuring three 4K UHD media players that are Roon Ready).

Roon Labs celebrated a huge expansion its audio device ecosystem, adding hundreds of brand and device partners in 2021. The cadence of new Roon Ready certifications has increased tenfold since the start of the pandemic.

Forty new brands have submitted products for certification in that timeframe.
