Cambridge Audio have announced that they will be launching a brand new version of the award-winning Azur 640R.
Cambridge Audio will introduce a Version 2 model in early 2009 featuring full HDMI 1.3b reception.

The 640R V2 can also transcode analogue video to HDMI for simplicity and flexibility, requiring just one cable to the TV screen.
The 640R V2 features Cambridge Audio Mic Controlled Auto Set-up (CAMCAS) for extremely quick and easy room installation and LipSync audio delay means the user can simply adjust for processing delays in the source or TV.
The unit will runs at 7 × 100 watts and in stereo mode the unit outputs 120 watts. All the current formats are supported, LPCM, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, DTS, DTS ES Matrix and Discrete, DTS 96/24, Neo:6, ProLogic II, ProLogic IIx, in 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1.
Multi-room compatibility is featured for connection to Cambridge Audio’s Incognito system or other custom install applications. Twin Incognito outputs offer plug and play compatibility with Cambridge Audio Incognito keypads or active speakers. This provides connection with up to two additional rooms, with fully independent source control.
