Funny enough, Cambridge Audio was indeed founded in Cambridge England 50+ years ago. They are a high(er) end audio company, best know for their amps and DACs. The build quality is definitely better than the mass market stuff you see from Yamaha, Sony,Onkyo..etc.

Great price for this. Enough power for most decently efficient speakers and comes with a good built in DAC too. Not the biggest fan of the look but that's personal preference. Cambridge makes quality gear.

Agreed, Cambridge is a high quality audio brand and the model up from this, the CXA81 soon multiple Integrated Amp of the year awards. I actually own the CXA81 and I personally prefer it over my much more expensive Musical Fidelity M6SI.

They are powered speakers and as far as i know pretty amazing too. You will need new passive speakers with this so cost add up. I can upgrade all u want but if at the end of the day you are happy with what u have, thats all that matters. With this amp you can get good towers (efficient) and kick ass.

The fives have internal amplification. You don't need an additional amplifier. If you are looking for a streamer, just get a WiiM mini streamer.

Great deal on a very solid amp from a great brand. I've been looking to replace some older stuff in my smaller system and this will do just fine.

I previously had this exact Amp as my introduction into Hifi music during the pandemic 3 years ago. It was and is wonderful. I initially paired it with some triangle BR03s and then some kef 350s. Great times!

One of the best if you have a limited budget. Just google how many awards this thing won.
