Cambridge – AXR85 Stereo Receiver

Budget-Friendly Entry-Level High-End Hub Features Toroidal Transformer, Built-In Phono Preamplifier, FM/AM Radio, Remote Control, and Terrific Sound: Cambridge Audio AXR85 Receiver Also Looks Gorgeous

How does a sub-$400 receiver stacked with a powerful 85 watts per channel, built-in MM phono preamplifier, FM/AM radio with RDS, headphone amplifier, front-panel auxiliary input, dedicated subwoofer output, two sets of speaker outputs, and remote control sound? To our ears, quite incredible. The Cambridge Audio AXR85 looks great, too, particularly since it takes its aesthetic cues from the company’s flagship Edge Series and sports a wedge-foot support base that makes the unit appear as if it floats.

Augmented by a toroidal transformer for deep bass response and rich reproduction of all music types, AXR85 comes on as a winning combination of power and purity, putting far more costly competitors to shame. An all-metal case that minimizes vibration rounds out an entry-level high-end product that delivers high-grade performance for mere pennies on the dollar. And its four analog outputs, balance control, and tone controls only add to its versatility.

Also afforded an on-board Bluetooth receiver for easy streaming from your phone or computer, AXR85 stands at the ready to handle sources ranging from digital files to CD players to spinning vinyl. Whether you’re looking for an extremely competent hub for a den, bedroom, or second system, want to show your love of excellent musical reproduction to loved ones, or simply want a solid building block of a main stereo, you cannot go wrong for the feature set and cost. 100% Music Direct Satisfaction Guaranteed.
