Even though this solution hardly takes up any space, it deserves to be properly showcased in the living room simply because of its elegant appearance. And since there are hardly any sources to be connected, there is no need to worry about cables, which is a problem for many users in this target group. A power cable, possibly a network cable, and of course the cables for the speakers, but that’s about it. With a little skill, these can be elegantly concealed.

Of course, everything is controlled elegantly via apps, whereby you don’t even have to rely on the app provided by the manufacturer, but will often use Apple AirPlay 2 or Google Chromecast anyway, depending on which of the two platforms you are “on the go”
The fact that the full spectrum of different streaming offers is also available is of course perfect for people who often no longer have their own music collection, but instead rely on millions and millions of music titles from the network.

The question that remains to be answered is whether the smallest product from A & R Cambridge Ltd. also sounds as you would expect from an Arcam brand solution. This question can be answered in the affirmative: the Arcam Solo Uno Wireless HiFi System convinces with a fine, round sound, especially when used in conjunction with somewhat more efficient loudspeaker systems of the compact class. Then it also demonstrates a quite remarkable assertiveness, a living room up to medium dimensions is thus its ancestral territory at normal levels, in smaller rooms it lacks nothing.

With the Arcam Solo Uno Wireless HiFi System, the English hi-fi manufacturer A & R Cambridge Ltd. offers an extremely exciting, very compact, very elegant, but above all extremely versatile and finely performing micro hi-fi system.

The best of the best, Arcam Solo Uno offers a wide variety of streaming music selections, a built-in amplifier, and a stylish design, which is everything you could want from a small, high-end music streamer. Excellent streaming audio: merely add speakers. The ideal mini-streamer amplifier is Arcam Solo Uno, which combines a superior network streamer with a small amplifier. A workstation, studio, kitchen, or any other place requiring a discrete design might benefit from versatile streaming systems that cater to high-quality audio components.

This premium Arcam amp, which is optimised for low noise and little distortion, delivers the rich, detailed sound you would expect from a top-tier hi-fi company. Contrary to what you might expect from such a little system, the bass is full and sustained and has a lot more weight. The high end is detailed without sounding unpleasant, and the midrange sounds realistic and natural

This premium Arcam amplifier delivers the smooth, detailed sound you would expect from this top-tier hi-fi brand. It has been optimised for low noise and minimal distortion. More weight than you’d anticipate from such a small system is present in the bass, which is deep and persistent. The top end is detailed without being harsh, and the midrange sounds realistic and genuine.

The English hi-fi maker A & R Cambridge Ltd. presents an incredibly exciting, very compact, extremely attractive, but above all extremely versatile and beautifully performing micro hi-fi system with the Arcam Solo Uno Wireless HiFi System. Thus, the Arcam Solo Uno Wireless HiFi System is a product that can only be endorsed for design-conscious music fans whose smartphone serves as their digital “centre of life.” It is also strongly advised that HiFi aficionados searching for a flexible second or third system give the Arcam Solo Uno Wireless HiFi System a closer look.

Hi-Fi Choice Recommended
The Solo Uno has a very Arcam sound, which in context is no bad thing at all.
…well controlled and able to drive rhythms smartly. For example with the stripped-down arrangements of the ChangesNowBowie set, the Arcam delivers fine detailing … the warmth and intimacy of the sound is persuasive, and the timbre of Bowie’s voice is delivered with excellent character.

This isn’t, perhaps, a system to choose if you want to blast out tunes at party levels day in and day out, but it has more than enough drive and power to punt music along at decent home listening volumes. Playing Paul Weller’s On Sunset album and the rhythms and punch of Old Father Tyme and Earth Beat have appropriate weight and slam, while giving good insight into often dense mixes.

It even has a good stab at large-scale classical music, as it shows with Arabella Steinbacher’s sometimes frenetic reading of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, while Sheku Kanneh-Mason’s not always successful attempt at the Elgar Cello Concerto nonetheless finds the Solo Uno unearthing decent texture from his instrument while bringing out the scale and finesse of the LSO under Simon Rattle.
