    OVERVIEW 


    Versatile Sound Comes First

    With 100 watts of power and FM/AM tuner too, AXR100 is an amp to be taken seriously – thanks to an integrated phono stage for easy connection of a turntable, and Bluetooth to play music wirelessly from a smartphone. Dedicated subwoofer output for driving bass, and two sets of speaker outputs add to R100’s appeal. While plenty of sockets front and rear build on that versatility.



    "Cambridge Audio’s AXR100 looks like it could belong in any decade – its hefty yet sleek grey enclosure design is timeless, understated and serious.”

     

     

    Your Journey into Sound

    AXR100 is a powerful receiver aimed at listening to music, and appreciating how it’s been recorded, from a variety of sources – including its own integrated tuner. Hi-fi separates like AXR100 are designed to take a signal, amplify it and output to your speakers. Choose speakers to suit your own taste – this powerful unit certainly gives you options.




    Radio Live Transmission

    With all the talk of streaming, it’s sometimes easy to forget the simple pleasure of radio. Turn it on, and it just works. With AXR100 you can programme up to 40 favourite stations and retrieve them, without having to re-scan. Station information, thanks to RDS, is shown on the white LED dot matrix display.





    Release the Wheels of Steel

    A built-in phono stage is one of many aces up AXR100’s sleeve. You can plug a turntable straight into the rear sockets without any extra kit. Moving magnet compatibility means it works with a wide range of turntables – including that vintage one you’ve always wanted to dust off. Soon you’ll be playing the records you already own and planning the next purchases.




    Bluetooth – Streaming is Easy

    Thanks to integrated Bluetooth 5.0, it’s simple to play music from your phone, laptop, or other compatible device on AXR100. It’s a great way for friends to share music with you, helping you to discover new favourite albums – before you splash out on a vinyl copy.




    Wired for Sound

    AXR100 is a very well-connected receiver, with 3 pairs of analogue RCA inputs, moving magnet phono section for a turntable and a pair of recording outputs. There’s a single digital coax in, as well as 2 optical connectors. Hi-fi quality speaker binding posts (connectors), for 2 sets of speakers, mean that thick cable connects securely for an authentic sound.




    Designed for Life

    As with the rest of the AX Series, AXR100 shares our house-style of Lunar Grey minimalist fascia, black steel cabinet and ‘floating’ base. This timeless look allows for an upgrade path through our range. A relatively slim build, in the classic 430mm hi-fi width, also means that AXR100 can easily slot into a much-loved system.

     



      

    REVIEW & AWARDS 

    Cambridge Audio AXR100 Stereo Receiver Review - Read More

    "Unimportant quibbles aside, the Cambridge Audio AXR100 stereo receiver's sound reproduction is obviously excellent. This receiver may be short on the latest-generation computer playback and wireless multiroom streaming goodies—and light on features generally—as well as a bit cranky in the ease-of-use department, but it gets the most important stuff, including amplifier power and finesse, phono-playback competence, and FM radio reception and quality, very right indeed. If you're seeking something basic to connect between sources and speakers, it checks the right boxes." - Daniel Kumin


    Cambridge Audio AXR100 Review: Suitable for all music genres - Read More

    "Cambridge Audio AXR100 Stereo Receiver is the most powerful in the AX range and can drive even large floor-standing speakers efficiently. The device is made in a metal case with a thick aluminum front panel, the location of the controls on which is well thought out. In its center there is a matrix display that is easily readable from a long distance, under which most of the buttons are grouped – for selecting a signal source or switching operating modes. The volume control on the right-hand side of the front panel can also be used to adjust the bass and treble tone through the menu system." Dimitri Sokolov
