Can get a little overwhelming at volumeĪn HDMI ARC socket is a straightforwardly good idea, of course, and there’s no two ways about it: route your TV through the A36 and it’ll sound altogether bigger, burlier, more detailed and more engrossing than it has a hope of sounding by itself.

(Image credit: TechRadar) Audio performance It’s not quite as clean or instinctive as the all-conquering Sonos control app, but it’s not all that far behind - which is about as big a compliment as it’s currently possible to pay. It’s here you can involve your favourite streaming services (headliners include Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, Amazon Music, Qobuz, vTuner, TuneIn and plenty more), establish an Audio Pro multiroom system, select your source, adjust bass and treble response, and set an alarm. Probably best of all, there’s the Audio Pro Control app, which puts a whole host of functionality at your disposal. There’s a tactile little metal and plastic remote control, with all major functions handled - plus five ‘preset’ buttons for storing favourite radio stations and playlists. Plus a socket for mains power, of course, and a corresponding pair of speaker binding posts.Ĭontrol options for the A36 are extensive and universally well implemented. Wirelessness is dealt with by Wi-Fi and aptX Adaptive Bluetooth connectivity, while the physical sockets extend to HDMI ARC, analogue 3.5mm, digital optical input and a pre-out for a subwoofer. It forms the left channel of the system, and it’s home to two 75-watt channels of Class D amplification as well as featuring all wired and wireless connections. The powered speaker is, of course, where the bulk of the action is. It’s here that a connection is made to its powered partner. The passive speaker of the pair also has a pair of speaker-cable binding posts on its rear panel, just below the bass reflex port. Both speakers feature a 25mm textile dome tweeter above a pair of 114mm mid/bass drivers, from which Audio Pro is claiming a frequency response of 35Hz - 25kHz.

Not for the first time, Audio Pro has (relatively speaking) gone to town where specification is concerned. The A36 floorstanders are compact (a miniscule 832 x 190 x 210mm), look good in fairly undemonstrative way (matte white or matte black finishes are available) and prove helpfully flexible about positioning, despite a fairly hefty rear-firing bass reflex port. Not for the first time, Audio Pro has delivered a product that manages to look discreet, purposeful and chic all at the same time.

Numerous control possibilities, including very nice app.
