High Quality Cambridge Audio 600 Watt 6.1 AVR Azur 540R V2

Fantastic sound, great looks, and Cambridge Audio Build Quality in a sleek, compact form factor. At this price point, It’s hard to beat the performance of this Azur 540R v2 for your music / home theater system.

From Cambridge:

“The 540R V2.0 is designed to maximise multi-channel performance without compromising on stereo reproduction. As such, the six discrete amplifiers are kept as separate as possible from the processing and input stages. An oversized power supply ensures that the 540R V2.0 can maintain a high power output into even difficult speaker loads to ensure a powerful and effortless sound.

For this V2.0 model we have fitted an improved volume control IC, larger PSU capacitors and made various improvements to the circuitry further elevating the sound quality of the unit. The Video switching has also been completely re-designed to give higher bandwidth compatible with HDTV and the unit now features full On Screen Display.

A full range of digital and analog inputs are fitted to the 540R V2.0. Digital inputs allow for the connection of suitably equipped DVD players, satellite boxes and games consoles for decoding into stereo or digital surround formats. Conventional analog stereo inputs allow the connection of CD players and the like to ensure the best possible stereo reproduction. The 540R V2.0 is also capable of decoding analog stereo sources in Dolby Pro Logic® II and DTS Neo:6, for a convincing and effective surround experience from an analog source.

All this proprietary engineering is housed within our low resonance, acoustically damped chassis. An Azur Navigator remote control is also provided, giving full remote control of your AV receiver in an attractive and easy to use handset.”
