Cambridge Audio
British audio brand launched in 1968, designing products in London and Cambridge with manufacturing partners abroad. Its current range connects conventional hi-fi electronics with streaming amplifiers, active speakers, all-in-one systems and Melomania headphones, offering several different approaches to a home music system.
About this resource
Cambridge Audio launched in 1968 and describes a continuing focus on music-led product development. Its company page also presents Melomania, a live-music venue in London SE1, as a meeting place for artists and listeners. The brand’s activity therefore extends beyond selling components, but its principal role in this directory is designing home-audio equipment. [2]
The ethical-sourcing page makes an important origin distinction: products are designed, engineered and tested by teams in London and Cambridge, while third-party factories and suppliers help produce finished equipment. Its UK engineering disciplines include electronics, software, mechanical design and quality assurance. British design should not therefore be read as a claim that every product is manufactured in Britain. [3]
The current homepage provides entry points across different system formats. Evo 300 is presented as a streaming amplifier, Evo One as an all-in-one music system, and L/R as an active stereo speaker range. Melomania includes over-ear noise-cancelling headphones and wireless earbuds, while Alva points toward vinyl playback. Comparing those families reveals whether a proposed setup needs separate speakers and amplification or combines more of the playback chain in a single product. [1]
