Arcam ST60

 Streaming music player with Wi-Fi®, Chromecast built-in and Apple AirPlay® 2

This well-designed player lets you access popular streaming services and offers solid digital and analog connections.

A top-notch music streamer

This is Arcam's first st-and-alone network music player, and it lives up to the company's high st-andards. It connects to your home network via wired Ethernet or Wi-Fi and lets you stream music from popular services like Deezer, Napster, Qobuz, Spotify and Tidal. It also features Apple AirPlay 2 and Google Chromecast built-in for additional streaming capability.

It's also Roon-ready and has colorful front-panel screen that displays album art, source, artist name, album title, and track information. And it has an attractive design that makes it a visual match for Arcam's integrated amplifiers, CD players, and other components.

Inputs and outputs

If you want your other digital components to benefit from the ST60's excellent digital-to-analog converter, you're in luck. It features two optical digital and two coaxial digital inputs on the back panel, plus balanced and unbalanced analog outputs. There are individual optical and coaxial outputs if you prefer to use the player's direct digital output. There's also a RS-232 serial port for third-party remote control via Crestron or a similar interface.
