ARCAM / Integrated Amplifier
Let the stereo handle movie night, too.
The A15+ is for a room where records, streaming and television all have to get along. Its HDMI eARC connection brings a compatible television into a real two-speaker system, while the MM phono stage keeps the turntable in the conversation. One system, fewer compromises about how you use it.
The House of Stereo perspective
Where the A15+ fits.
With 80 watts per channel into 8 ohms, this Class AB amplifier steps up from the A5+. That is useful extra headroom, but the speaker match still comes first. Tell us how far away you sit and what you listen to; we will help decide whether this is the right stopping point.
At a glance
A15+ specifications
Stereo 8-ohm power ratings: both channels driven, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.5% THD. Speaker impedance, room size and listening level all affect amplifier matching.
The television gets a seat at the stereo.
The A15+ retains Class AB amplification and increases output to 80 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Its revised power supply and 120-watt, 4-ohm rating give useful context, but note that the 4-ohm figure is measured at 1kHz rather than across the full audio band.
HDMI eARC/ARC is the practical difference for a television system. It lets the stereo receive audio from a compatible TV, alongside the three RCA line inputs, moving-magnet phono input and conventional digital connections. Bluetooth 5.4 serves wireless sources and compatible headphones. For dedicated network streaming, pair it with an ST5 or another suitable streamer; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi streaming do different jobs.

A few useful answers
Can I order this online?
Please call House of Stereo at 904-642-6677 to order. We will confirm availability, system compatibility and delivery details with you.
Does it include Wi-Fi streaming?
Use a separate network streamer for dedicated Wi-Fi playback. Built-in Bluetooth serves compatible wireless sources; it is a different connection from a network streaming platform.
