The next generation of ARCAM home theater has arrived — and Safe and Sound is taking pre-orders now! 

If you love the musicality, engineering and unmistakable design of ARCAM’s Radia Series, there’s some very exciting news for home theater enthusiasts: ARCAM is bringing the Radia philosophy to serious home cinema with four brand-new AV components — the AVA15, AVA25, AVA35 and AVP45.

At Safe and Sound, we’re excited to announce that all four models are currently available for pre-order, with the ARCAM AVA15 scheduled to arrive in stock on August 5, 2026.

These new components represent a significant step forward from ARCAM’s previous generation of AV electronics, bringing together powerful amplification, sophisticated immersive processing, advanced Dirac room correction, modern HDMI connectivity, high-resolution streaming and the distinctive Radia industrial design.

And ARCAM hasn’t forgotten what makes its products special: music.

The goal here is not simply to make movies louder or add more surround channels. ARCAM has designed the Radia AV platform around the idea that a great home theater should also be an exceptional music system.

A New Direction for ARCAM Home Theater

The new Radia AV family effectively takes the place of ARCAM’s previous-generation AV electronics, including models such as the AVR11, AVR21, AVR31 and AV41. But rather than simply carrying over the previous platform with a cosmetic update, ARCAM has taken the opportunity to significantly modernize the entire AV experience.

The new Radia AV components bring several important advances:

• Dolby Atmos and DTS immersive audio
• Auro-3D on the AVA25, AVA35 and AVP45
• Dirac Live Room Correction
• Support for Dirac Live Bass Control and Dirac Live Active Room Treatment (ART)
• HDMI 2.1 connectivity with 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz
• VRR and ALLM for modern gaming
• Bluetooth 5.4 with Snapdragon Sound and Auracast
• Apple AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz Connect
• Roon Ready network streaming
• High-resolution audio up to 24-bit/192kHz
• A new 6.5-inch high-resolution color display
• The new ARCAM Radia App for setup, control and streaming
• A distinctive black-and-yellow Radia design that looks every bit as premium as the electronics inside.

Perhaps the biggest technological advancement is Dirac Live Active Room Treatment. Rather than simply correcting individual speakers, ART can coordinate the system as a whole to improve bass control, timing and overall clarity. For real-world rooms — where acoustics are rarely perfect — this can be a major advantage.

Which ARCAM Radia AV Component Is Right for You?

The simple way to look at it:

AVA15: The smartest way into Radia home theater.

AVA25: More power, Class AB amplification and greater processing flexibility.

AVA35: The enthusiast's choice — Class G amplification and upgraded DAC architecture bring the strongest combination of theater and two-channel performance.

AVP45: The centerpiece for a no-compromise separates system.

What Makes the New Radia AV Series Better?

One of the most important things to understand is that these aren't simply “new ARCAM receivers.” They represent a significant modernization of ARCAM's AV platform.

Compared with the previous-generation ARCAM AV electronics, the Radia models bring a dramatically more contemporary feature set, including HDMI 2.1 with 8K and 4K/120 support, modern gaming features, Bluetooth 5.4 and Auracast, newer streaming services, the Radia App, a large color display and access to Dirac's more advanced room-optimization technologies.

The biggest leap may be the combination of Dirac Live, Bass Control and Active Room Treatment. This takes ARCAM's already strong room-correction capabilities into a much more sophisticated realm, giving installers and enthusiasts new tools for managing the acoustical challenges of real rooms.

And for music lovers, ARCAM has retained its focus on sound quality — particularly with the AVA35 and AVP45, which use an upgraded DAC architecture derived from ARCAM's stereo components.

In other words, ARCAM hasn't simply built a better home theater receiver. It has built a home theater platform with the audiophile in mind.
