Using technology developed from the acclaimed AVR600 receiver and AV888 processor the AVR400 has been developed as a more affordable way to access Arcam's legendary sound quality. It is designed to be the perfect home cinema receiver for a wide range of enthusiastic customers and custom designed home theatres.

The AVR400 sounds precise, detailed and natural. More like an upmarket hi-fi separate amp in sound quality than the uniformly disappointing noise served up by most AV amps which aren't even good enough for Country and Western. Its clarity and poise on vocals will draw in all who listen.
