    Overall the Cambridge Audio A5 is a fairly good deal new if you are in the market for a modestly featured amp at a good price, but if you can pick one up second hand I really recommend it, I couldn't resist (seeing as it was second hand and there was no warranty to worry about) taking a peek inside, everything in there looked fairly well put together with a decent sized toroidal transformer and a fairly good sized heat sink. Higher quality overall than I expected.
    Bottom line, use it with some ...

    There is no doubt, that for the money, this is a superb piece of kit. It gives you a punchy 60 Watts per channel at 8 ohms. And for only £119.99 in Richersounds, there is not much to complain about.

    Let me tell you one story:
    I bought one Cambridge Audio A5 Integrated Amplifier in 2000. Then in 2001 I faced a little problem - I had output of 220v on speakers (now I don't have them, heh).
    I took them to Richer Sounds to be repaired, one week later they gave me a new amp...
    So be careful, do not shake it too much!

    (A new one has been working for 2 years without switching off - perfectly!)

    I am really impressed with my Cambridge Audio A5 Integrated Amplifier. When my father bought a sony amplifier I remember thinking how wonderful it was and how many things it could do to improve your listening experience. Then I bought my Cambridge Audio A5 Amplifier and I was amazed to find that this simple looking amplifier could produce such a brilliant sound. I am currently using it with a Cambridge Audio CD5 and some Gale Silver Monitors which I think is a good setup considering i got it all ...
