SOLO MINI with MUSO Speakers
Arcam’s Solo music and movie systems have redefined the accepted limitations of all-in-one HiFi systems, delivering audiophile music performance that has wowed customers and reviewers the world over. The Solo family provides the right answer for customers who crave high quality reproduction but reject the traditional “pile of boxes” high performance HiFi system. Arcam has kept the audiophile promise we have made for thirty years but can now deliver delightfully engaging sound from a single stylish and easy to use unit.
Building on the original Solo music system but in a smaller form factor, the Solo mini provides premium performance in a discrete and stylish unit. An ideal partner with the Muso speakers, the Solo Mini system features a CD player, radio tuner (FM/DAB or FM/AM) and iPod interface using the rDock or rLead. In addition a front panel USB input allows USB memory devices to be played (MP3 and WMA files supported).
Using sophisticated circuitry taken from higher priced Arcam components, the sound quality available from the Solo mini system is without equal at the price. A Torroid based power supply ensures even demanding bass lines are delivered without compromise to other instruments or voices.
Using the DACs and high precision clock from the company’s award winning CD73, digital sources are processed with extremely high precision allowing fine detail to be reproduced with breathtaking clarity. The Solo mini uses the same high current power amplifiers as the full size Solo music system ensuring a truly dynamic experience even at louder volume levels.

It’s sleek design, flexible connectivity and powerful amplifier stages deliver a level of reproduction far beyond that of “budget” separates systems. Using the latest in amplifier technology plus over thirty years of audio design experience the A18 is an astounding amplifier, true to Arcam’s tradition of affordable excellence.
Using very high quality components and carefully designed multi-layer PCBs the A18 is designed for performance from the ground up. Connectivity is highly flexible allowing direct connection of seven line level sources including a dedicated 3.5mm front panel jack socket for portable music players.
Operation of the A18 is simplicity itself. A rotary encoder allows precise control over volume and other selections such as tone controls and balance. This means delicate audio signals need not travel to and from the front panel or through potentially noisy mechanical potentiometers or switches.
The A18s large power supply uses a toroid transformer which ensures an extremely quiet backdrop to music and superb stability during large bass transients. The chassis features a damped “Sound Dead Steel” construction virtually eliminating mechanical influences on the electronics.
As part of Arcam’s FMJ line of high performance separates, the A18 is an ideal partner for the new CD17 CD player and is available in black or silver finish.

COMPACT DISC PLAYERS
FMJ CD17 CD Player
Since the introduction of its multi-award winning “Alpha” CD player of the late 1980s, the Arcam name has become synonymous with affordable HiFi of outstanding quality. In the intervening years Arcam’s CD playback technology has developed to a point that its players are often compete with considerably more expensive products. The CD17 is Arcam’s new entry level CD player and draws on a wealth of experience in the field.
The CD17 offers astonishing musical reproduction from CDs. The all important Digital to Analogue conversion is carried out by the very latest Wolfson 8741 DAC driven by an extremely accurate digital clock and audiophile grade supporting components.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI), which would normally mask fine details in similar players, is dramatically reduced using Arcam’s proprietary “Mask of Silence” technology. The use of “Stealth Mat” (unique metal fibre matting) further diffuses EMI to help reproduce every nuance of each recording.
The CD17s power supply uses a toroid transformer together with individually regulated supplies to digital, analogue and servo sections providing extremely stable power with minimal noise. Case construction uses a mix of aluminium and steel to reduce resonance and afford maximum electronic screening for the internal components.
The resulting sound quality ensures a truly thrilling insight even with complex recordings. As part of Arcam’s FMJ line of high performance separates, the CD17 is an ideal partner for the new A18 and A28 integrated amplifiers and is available in black or silver finish.
