Cambridge dge W was --- 5000€ now 4500€
The best power-amplifier we have ever made.
Edge W is made to be played loud. When you do turn it up, expect nothing but a dynamic and punchy sound that captures all the musicality of your songs. With just 14 hand-picked components, Edge W has one of the cleanest signal paths available. It delivers our breath-taking, unadulterated British sound – nothing added, nothing taken away.
“You have to hear it!”
– ANDY BOXALL, DIGITAL TRENDS
Powerfully subtle.
For all its power, Edge W is remarkably detailed. The sound is finely balanced, with a musical depth and clarity that comes through with every note. It’s all down to how we chose the componentry inside – nothing was picked on price, specs or measured performance. We listened carefully. And created our system with components that simply sounded the best. The end result is a power amplifier that truly brings an original recording to life like no other.
Just 14 components in the signal path.
Although minimal in its exterior design, Edge W has some complex audio engineering inside. To remove the barriers between you and your music, we have worked hard to minimise the number of components in the signal path.
As a result, Edge W delivers a more faithful reproduction of the original recording; an impressively detailed three-dimensional sound, with striking staging and focus.
Effortless power without distortion.
Using standard Class A amplifier technology wasn’t going to be efficient enough for Edge W. Instead we added a bias voltage to a traditional Class AB design, reducing distortion to inaudible levels. This unique configuration also produces less heat and makes the whole system much more effective.
Perfect partners.
Edge systems are designed to work in perfect synchronisation. Match the Edge W with our most versatile Preamplifier Network player, Edge NQ, to create a hi-fi system with a sound, and a look, unlike anything else.

FIDELITY
GERMANY,
‘We never doubted for a moment that Cambridge Audio can meet the demands of the high-end class. The components of the 851 series already show how much flair for musicality and balanced tonal balance the British have developed. But the Edge combination offers much more than that.’

「英國Cambridge Audio從1968年創立迄今，一直以「英國之聲」自傲，同時也以大家都能買得起的訂價政策行銷。現在，他們打破50年來不變的作法，推出向創辦人之一致敬的產品。設計的指令是不計成本，只求最好。不過，它們的售價依然維持在大家能夠負擔的範圍內，值得向他們致敬。」
