In recent years the Arcam AV receiver range has captured the imagination
of a whole new generation of movie and music enthusiasts. For the
first time these products successfully bridged
the gap between stereo music systems and multi-channel receivers
delivering the perfect balance between performance and features.
Building on this success, Arcam introduces the AVR350, the
company's highest performing receiver to date.
At its heart the AVR350 is a high performance 7.1 channel home
cinema and music receiver. Offering sound quality far beyond that
of ordinary mass market products, the AVR350 will thrill even the
most discerning listeners. Arcam has long delivered innovative features
in its products and has been a front runner in the adoption of the
HDMI interface standard. The AVR350 continues these traditions adopting
two-way HDMI switching for automatic selection of digital video
source.
Audio performance is outstanding with digital or analogue inputs
presenting an immersive listening experience from any source. The
pre amp stage features ultra high performance OP2134 op amps from
Burr Brown in circuits taken from the company's range topping AVP700
pre-amp/processor. In addition, much use has been made of Arcam's
"Mask of Silence" technologies including the Stealth Mat
previously only seen in its high end FMJ components.
Embracing a full complement of decoding standards the AVR350 processes
Dolby Digital EX, DTS ES, DTS24/96 and the very latest Dolby Pro
Logic IN algorithms. All video switching is HDTV compatible and
analogue video stages include up-conversion from composite or s-video
to component or RGB to minimize the number of cable runs to a display.
Featuring ultra-low distortion power-amps, the AVR350 drives seven
8 ohm speakers with a continuous 100wpc. A direct signal path for
stereo and 7.1 multi-channel analogue inputs is included, plus preamplifier
outputs for use with external power amplifiers. For second rooms,
zone 2 outputs feed stereo line level audio and composite video
independently from the main room. In addition two-way RS232 and
IR control are built in as standard allowing future system software
updates.
