Arcam Solo Movie 2.1

The Arcam Solo Movie 2.1 is £1450 of High-end Upscaling DVD / CD / DAB Stereo Music & Home Cinema system. It boasts significantly better sound performance than the £1000 Solo Music and all the video quality of the £2000 Solo Movie 5.1. The video and upscaling hardware comes right out of Arcam’s £1000 players giving it 1080i video upscaling and 1080p HDMI switching.

If the video and audio performance isn’t enough to float your boat, the unit is also stunningly designed attaining minamalism without actually doing so, the fascia buttons are cunningly disguised as styling and everything is accessible without being visually overbearing.

The Arcam Solo Movie 2.1s sound is delivered by two powerful 50 watt audiophile quality amplifiers that can drive even demanding full range speakers to remarkable levels.

Solo 2.1 boasts connectivity and playback for the HDTV era, with
a 720p/1080i video scaler, 1080p HDMI Full HD switching, a universal
DVD/SACD/DVD-A/CD transport and superb quality DAB/FM Radio.
