"For someone who is looking for a device that can go far beyond a simple sound system, the Cambridge Audio One is a fantastic option." 'Which? - Best Buy'.
ONE system does it all - just add speakers
If you're after a system that can cope with your digital and analogue sources plus still sound great and doesn't take up too much room, you don't need to look any further. Despite its compact size, the Cambridge Audio ONE boasts a powerful 30 x 2 watt amplifier that can easily fill all but the largest of rooms. Unlike many rivals, the 30 watt power rating is quoted at 8 ohms, making it genuinely as powerful as many budget separate amplifiers. As you'd expect from Cambridge Audio, the quality is top notch, too. An oversized toroidal power transformer provides effortless power and dynamics while selected components ensure a low distortion, natural sound quality.
Premium DAC technology so you'll hear every detail in your favorite music
In addition to the high quality amplification, the ONE features impressive digital components. A premium Wolfson DAC (Digital to Analogue Converter) ensures that, whatever the digital source, the ONE will do its very best in producing the highest quality audio available at its price.
Bluetooth streaming
Thanks to Bluetooth streaming you can connect up a whole host of sources and stream a huge range of music. Connect your smartphone or tablet and, as well as just your stored music library, you can take advantage of streaming music services such as Spotify and last.fm. Alternatively, connect your compatible PC, Mac or Laptop via Bluetooth and access a potentially huge range of stored music.
USB audio
For the highest quality sound from your PC or laptop, there is a USB Audio connection available. This bypasses the sound card in your computer and uses the superior processing power of the One for superb sound quality. In addition to this, a second USB is also provided for charging your mobile devices.
Optical and coaxial digital inputs
Making the most of the superior quality built-in DAC is easy thanks to both optical and coaxial digital inputs. Connect up your games console, TV, set-top box, Blu-ray player or a myriad of other devices with digital outputs for the highest resolution, digital sound quality. In addition to these sockets the ONE also provides a front-mounted, 3.5mm socket and 1 pair of RCA phonos at the rear for any analogue sources you may have.
CD and DAB
As well as a comprehensive range of connectivity, the ONE system also features an impressive CD player and DAB/FM tuner radio built-in. As you'd expect from Hi-Fi experts, Cambridge Audio, the CD player is of premium quality. Making use of the excellent Wolfson DAC, the sound quality is dynamic and precise yet never harsh. The player is also compatible with discs containing MP3 and WMA audio files. The ONE also comes equipped with a top notch radio tuner. Fitted with both the latest DAB+ and FM tuners, this gives the choice of listening to a wide range of radio stations whether analogue or digital, national or local.
Superior build quality
Cambridge Audio are well renowned for their quality construction and the ONE system is no exception. The solid casing is both low resonance and rigid; ideal for reducing the chances of mechanical or electrical interference. Supplied with the unit is an easy to operate Navigator remote control. Available with either black or white casings, the ONE is easy to accommodate, without dominating your room.
Two finishes, one great system, the Cambridge Audio ONE goes solo in style.
