Arcam AVR20 AV Receiver

Description

AVR20

The Arcam AVR20 is a premium-quality multi-channel audio video receiver.

AVR20 features the efficient class AB amplification for a level of transparency that delivers the most captivating sound. Audiophile listening experiences are optimised with full 16-channel Dirac calibration on board, as well as simple streaming with a mobile device using your native app of choice via Apple Airplay2 or Google Chromecast.

In a class-AB amplifier, the conduction angle is intermediate between class A and class B. Each one of the two active elements conducts more than half of the time.

Class AB is widely considered a good compromise for amplifiers, since much of the time the music signal is quiet enough that the signal stays in the class-A region, where it is amplified with good fidelity. If passing out of this region, the signal is then large enough that the distortion products typical of class B are relatively small. The crossover distortion can be reduced further by using negative feedback.
