The most fun you can have with 60 watts. An amplifier is the heart of any hi-fi system and ours - What Hi-Fi?’s ‘Best Stereo Amplifier’ two years running – is hugely entertaining. With those 60 watts of power comes 4 analogue, 3 digital and optional Bluetooth inputs so your connectivity is sorted too.

  • OUR MOST ENERGETIC SOUND YET

    Designing the CXA60 was a challenge that was accepted with open arms by our engineers. We wanted an amp that sounded more musical and energetic than anything we’ve made before. They beavered away for months and after some particularly late nights they eventually nailed it. To achieve this they used some unique engineering techniques, some very premium components, and some great ears for detail.

    LISTEN TO YOUR MUSIC AT ITS BEST

    We’ve used an audiophile-grade toroidal transformer which helps minimise magnetic flux levels. This basically keeps distortion and other noise levels low so that your music is played back with complete purity. We also centrally mount the transformer to reduce interference with other components in the circuit board such as the volume pot; this is in a further effort to keep your music sounding amazing. As for the volume pot itself, we’ve used an ALPs film type volume pot which delivers accurate volume control and superb low level channel balance so the volume is always perfectly controlled across both left and right channels at whatever volume you’re enjoying.

    AN AMPLIFIER FOR THE DIGITAL WORLD

    The CXA60 was designed to work with digital sources from the outset so has a 24-bit Wolfson WM8740 DAC (a very premium digital to analogue converter) built in. This chip is as the heart of our award-winning DacMagic range. So whether it’s music from your TV or your network streaming device, it all gets passed through the Wolfson DAC. Connecting the CXA60 to the digital out of the CXC dedicated CD transport also creates a perfect partnership. The result is that any digital music soars to new heights, reveals new depths and can be enjoyed like never before.

    CONNECTIONS

    Digital connections are in the form of S/PDIF co-axial and TOSLINK digital inputs. Add an optional BT100 Bluetooth dongle and you have access to aptX high-quality streaming, opening up a world of wireless possibilities from your paired device. Analogue options include four sets of RCA inputs and a front 3.5mm aux jack so you’re fully catered for there as well.

    BRAINS AND BEAUTY

    The floating effect of the chassis, the brushed finish, the easy-to-read front panel, they’re all designed to create a hi-fi amplifier that’s as beautiful on the outside as it’s well-engineered on the inside. Whatever the source, the CXA60 enables you to re-discover your favourite music.

    Great sound, and a 6-page owner manual.

    I received my CXA60 today, and after a bit of listening, I can't believe how differently it sounds from the receiver it replaces. It seems to have woken up my planar speakers, and many of my favorite tracks sound... more favorite. What else could you ask for from a piece of audio equipment? It's also worth mentioning that I love how simply it works. Plug it in, hook up stuff, move speakers around, voila. The only downside I'd note is that this generation does not have built-in Bluetooth. I've ordered their BT100 to compare against my existing BT receiver. Some samples of music it seems to make sound better? Slow Dancer "Please;" Tom Misch "Man Like You;" DMP "Taste of DMP" sampler almost all tracks; Jim O'Rourke/Donna Taylor "Walk On By;" Sampha "Treasure;" Khruangbin, "Friday Morning." What it really didn't like: Shawshank Redemption soundtrack "Shawshank Redemption" (gotta check my recording).

    Fantastic amp!

    Had this a few weeks now and I can honestly say it's one of the best amps I've heard around its price point, I currently have it set up with my TV and aeromax 6 floorstanders and sounds fantastic, if also added a chromecast audio for when in just listening to audio and it sounds amazing, the soundstage is perfect. Definitely recommend picking one up.

    Absolutely fabulous

    I replaced my 23 year old Pioneer with this. I have had a pair of Tannoy speakers for some time that sounded great, but with this, they really show what they can do. Softness, clarity and spacial character of the music are the keywords. Even at low volume sound is clear. The bluetooth source gives a nice sound as well.

    Clear sound and loads of detail

    Recently brought this amp along with the cxa and The CXN v2. This is the best sounding system I have ever had. I also brought mission QX 3 speakers to go along with these. The sound is amazing, especially playing CD’s which are brought back to life. One thing I really like is that there is not too much bass although this may not be to everyone’s liking. This is worth every penny spent.
