Details
We’re happy to accept trade-ins for new equipment so we can do something fun with it! Please let us know what you might have to trade in. Of course, this is also available without a trade-in. We deliver 100% new in a sealed box, but we thought it would be fun to snap a quick photo of our demo model. Stop by for a demo in one of our 5 listening rooms! Other configurations are also available.

Looking for another type from the brand’s current series? Send a message! We like to make something fun.

This is your chance to finally get demo material from the coolest shop in the universe. Yeah! Actually worth a lot more than the new price for this but we’ll restrain ourselves. Only used for listening sessions with our visitors, no private owner.
General description
This device supports various streaming services, including Spotify Connect and Tidal Connect, and is compatible with Apple AirPlay 2 and Google Chromecast. It supports hi-res audio up to 24-bit/192 kHz and is Roon Ready. The built-in ESS ES9018 DAC provides accurate digital-to-analog conversion. Connection options include both analog and digital outputs. The unit can be connected to the home network via Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
Background information
The Arcam Radia ST5 was designed to be an ideal partner to the Radia A5 and A15 amplifiers. The design team, led by Arcam chief engineer Nick Clarke, focused on maximum noise reduction and accurate digital signal processing. The unit combines a high-quality ESS ES9018 DAC with carefully chosen components, short signal paths and a rugged, low-resonance cabinet. Production takes place in Europe.
Brand history
Arcam was founded in 1976 in Cambridge, United Kingdom. The first product the company launched was the A60, an integrated amplifier that achieved iconic status and sold more than 30,000 copies. Arcam expanded its range in 1986 with the first CD player designed and manufactured entirely in the UK. In 1988, Arcam released the Black Box, one of the first stand-alone DACs (Digital to Analogue Converter) for CD playback. In the 1990s, Arcam introduced the Xeta 1, the first AV amplifier for audiophiles, and developed the world’s first DAB tuner for home use in 1999.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

CD

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.
