    With 100 watts of power and FM/AM tuner too, AXR100 is an amp to be taken seriously – thanks to an integrated phono stage for easy connection of a turntable, and Bluetooth to play music wirelessly from a smartphone. Dedicated subwoofer output for driving bass, and two sets of speaker outputs add to R100’s appeal. While plenty of sockets front and rear build on that versatility.

    Your Journey into Sound

    AXR100 is a powerful receiver aimed at listening to music, and appreciating how it’s been recorded, from a variety of sources – including its own integrated tuner. Hi-fi separates like AXR100 are designed to take a signal, amplify it and output to your speakers. Choose speakers to suit your own taste – this powerful unit certainly gives you options.

    Radio Live Transmission

    With all the talk of streaming, it’s sometimes easy to forget the simple pleasure of radio. Turn it on, and it just works. With AXR100 you can programme up to 40 favourite stations and retrieve them, without having to re-scan. Station information, thanks to RDS, is shown on the white LED dot matrix display.

    Release the Wheels of Steel

    A built-in phono stage is one of many aces up AXR100’s sleeve. You can plug a turntable straight into the rear sockets without any extra kit. Moving magnet compatibility means it works with a wide range of turntables – including that vintage one you’ve always wanted to dust off. Soon you’ll be playing the records you already own and planning the next purchases.

    Bluetooth – Streaming is Easy

    Thanks to integrated Bluetooth 5.0, it’s simple to play music from your phone, laptop, or other compatible device on AXR100. It’s a great way for friends to share music with you, helping you to discover new favourite albums – before you splash out on a vinyl copy.

    Wired for Sound

    AXR100 is a very well-connected receiver, with 3 pairs of analogue RCA inputs, moving magnet phono section for a turntable and a pair of recording outputs. There’s a single digital coax in, as well as 2 optical connectors. Hi-fi quality speaker binding posts (connectors), for 2 sets of speakers, mean that thick cable connects securely for an authentic sound.

    Designed for Life

    As with the rest of the AX Series, AXR100 shares our house-style of Lunar Grey minimalist fascia, black steel cabinet and ‘floating’ base. This timeless look allows for an upgrade path through our range. A relatively slim build, in the classic 430mm hi-fi width, also means that AXR100 can easily slot into a much-loved system.

    Great receiver!

    The AXR100 is a great sounding, flexible, plenty powerful unit. Phono stage is good too! All this performance at this price is amazing.

    AXR100 Receiver

    I'm using the AXR100 for the first time today with a CD player and my TV and so far it works great.
    I'm hoping to get your ALVA ST turntable when they're back in stock,so I can see how that performs.

    Easy setup, superior sound quality

    We've got a bit of a mixed generation setup - from a 1980 Technics turntable to a 2023 OLED TV with digital-only outputs, and not only does the AXR100 deliver for our diverse needs, it delivers hard. We replaced a dying early 1990s receiver from a competitor, and to say it was a step up is an understatement; we simply didn't know what we were missing. The sound the AXR100 delivers is clean and encompasses the full spectrum of highest highs and lowest lows, giving equal weight to quiet sounds and loud. Setup was a breeze - for us it's the turntable, the TV, AM/FM radio, and bluetooth for our phones - and each component works like a charm. Honestly, couldn't be happier. 10/10 would buy again.
