Design and Construction
The Arcam Radia R25 features a rigid, resonance-controlled cabinet designed to reduce unwanted vibration and maintain structural stability. Internal bracing and damping materials are used to help manage enclosure resonance and support consistent acoustic performance.
The exterior finish reflects the Radia series design language, offering clean lines and a contemporary aesthetic suitable for modern interiors. Its compact dimensions allow flexible placement on stands, shelving or furniture.
Driver Configuration
The R25 incorporates a dedicated high-frequency driver and a mid/bass driver, integrated through a carefully designed crossover network. This configuration aims to ensure smooth frequency transition and balanced tonal presentation across the audible range.
The driver arrangement is optimised for stereo listening, supporting coherent imaging and consistent dispersion when positioned correctly within a two-channel setup.
System Compatibility
The Radia R25 is designed to pair with a wide range of stereo amplifiers and integrated systems. With standard impedance characteristics, it is suitable for use with many modern hi-fi amplifiers that provide stable output into typical loudspeaker loads.
Its compact form factor makes it appropriate for smaller listening spaces, desktop systems or secondary stereo installations where full-size floorstanding loudspeakers may not be practical.
