Arcam SA45 Streaming Integrated Amplifier
Arcam SA45 Streaming Integrated Amplifier
Reference Streaming • 5th-Gen Class G Power • Dirac Live Precision
Overview — Meet the Arcam SA45
The Arcam SA45 carries forward the spirit of Arcam’s flagship A49 with a modern twist: a fully balanced digital and analogue architecture, an all-new 6-layer streaming & DAC platform, and a newly engineered linear toroidal power supply. Expertly crafted in Cambridge, UK, the SA45 preserves the most delicate musical subtleties while delivering exhilarating dynamics.
Inside, an ESS Hyperstream iV DAC topology in balanced configuration with advanced jitter elimination feeds Arcam’s 5th-generation Class G amplification for 2 × 180 W into 8 Ω (up to 300 W into 4 Ω). A ground-plane board design lowers noise across the signal path, while a standby-only switching supply preserves efficiency when not in use.
Highlights & Benefits
- Preserve the details — 6-layer digital/streaming board with a continuous ground plane keeps noise away from sensitive audio stages.
- Balanced by design — Fully balanced analogue and digital paths for lower distortion and superior channel separation.
- Class G authority — 5th-gen design delivers massive headroom, speed, and control, with higher efficiency than traditional Class AB.
- Next-gen streaming — Quick Wi-Fi setup via Arcam Radia App; instant playback with Apple AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, and Roon Ready*.
- Room-perfected sound — Dirac Live Room Correction and dual subwoofer outputs tailor response for any room and speaker system.
- Vinyl to video — MM & MC phono stage plus HDMI eARC for seamless TV integration.
- See the music — Large 8.8" bonded high-resolution display shows artwork and metadata clearly from across the room.
- Bluetooth evolved — Snapdragon Sound, LE Audio, and Auracast support for high-quality send/receive.
Technology & Design
Noise-optimized digital core — Ground-plane across the entire 6-layer board reduces interference; ESS Hyperstream iV DAC in balanced configuration with advanced jitter suppression preserves timing and microdetail.
Power with poise — New linear toroidal transformer drives the full analogue and digital system with lower noise; smart switching supply operates only in standby for peak efficiency.
5th-gen Class G amplification — Refined component selection and thermal/headroom management deliver effortless dynamics and ultra-low distortion.
Streaming & Control
Connect to your network via dual-band Wi-Fi using the Arcam Radia App. Enjoy instant streaming through AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, and Roon Ready* capability. The expansive 8.8" display presents artwork and metadata at a glance.
