The most powerful amplifier in the AX range offers an incredible power of 100 W per channel, a dedicated subwoofer output to enhance bass, and two sets of speaker outputs.
It also features analog inputs, digital inputs, an MM phono stage, a DAB+ and FM tuner with RDS, and a 3.5 mm input. Plus, the built-in Bluetooth 5.0 receiver allows you to listen to your favorite music from your smartphone, tablet or PC.
The AXR100 has an automatic standby function. So you won’t have to worry about turning off your amp anymore: it will do it for you!
15 radio stations (per band) can be stored and accessed from the front panel buttons.
The AXR100D differs from the AXR85 by the presence of a DAC: on the back you will have three digital inputs.
The AX range offers understated models, without frills, but equipped with audiophile components. It is particularly intended for all hi-fi enthusiasts on a tight budget.
The AXR100D is the most powerful amp in the AX range and it will be able to pair with a wide range of speakers.

A good entry-level amp, but personally I preferred the older model from the CXA60/61 range.

Superb amp! What musicality! I think a break-in period will further improve things! It is beautiful, powerful and high-performing. Compared to the competition, it is quite simple, but the main thing is the sound. In a 50m2 living room with my Kef iQ70 speakers (150W each), it's incredible, and there is still room to spare. No negatives... The reviews talk about the fan that turns on constantly and is super noisy! Not at all! The Bluetooth function bugs out as soon as you go beyond 3 meters distance! For me, it works well at 10m and with several different phones (Oppo, iPhone, Sony...). Superb finish. It goes into standby if not used after 20 minutes. Not too deep, so there is plenty of room behind for connections.
