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. Not exactly "old skool" audio components, the new ARCAM designs are a welcome refresh for the brand with a unique combination of modern, bold aesthetics, and modern audio technology.

Following an earlier announcement in 2022, Technics confirmed that its new generation multi-digital audio player that supports a wide range of music sources will become available in January 2023. The Technics SL-G700M2 is the successor to the SL-G700 network/Super Audio CD player, now updated with all the latest new digital features, improved PCM and DSD playback, and featuring the latest DA converters from ESS Technology. The new audio player gains full MQA decoding ability, AirPlay 2, adds a USB input, adding to the versatility of the design.

Luxman’s latest digital player, the D-03X, includes a host of new features such as Master Quality Authenticated full decoding for MQA files and MQA-CDs, support for DSD files up to quad rate 11.28 MHz, PCM up to 32-bit/384 kHz, Bulk Pet USB transfer and fully balanced output circuitry. It looks very much like a standard CD player, but it truly is a 21st century device, with clever display features, and most importantly, with a chassis design to last including an oversized power supply and meticulous circuit selection.
