Arcam audio equipment

Arcam is a distinguished British manufacturer of high-fidelity audio and home cinema products. Founded in 1976 by students from Cambridge University, the company originally gained acclaim under the name 'A&R Cambridge' for its high-performance amplifiers. Arcam has long been recognized for its commitment to audio engineering excellence and innovation in digital-to-analog conversion.

While the brand maintains its British engineering roots, production transitioned to international facilities following changes in ownership. In 2012, Arcam was acquired by Jam Industries (now Exertis Jam), and subsequently, in 2017, the brand became part of the Harman International Industries group. Harman, in turn, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Samsung Electronics, meaning Arcam is ultimately under the umbrella of one of South Korea's largest technology conglomerates. Today, Arcam continues to design its products in the UK, while manufacturing is largely carried out in specialized electronics facilities in Asia.
