AV Master 8.0

Adding a new AV Master to your stereo system brings the latest digital surround sound technology to your home. We have designed the controls so it’s very easy to use, even setup is a simple process due to a wizard on the screen that helps guide you through the setup process.

The AV Master is now the centre of the system, with up to 6 sources connected, each sounding better because of our advanced up-sampling circuitry. Advanced systems will typically be specified with more demanding speakers, so the AV Master has outputs for bigger power amplifiers to be connected. Adding larger amps may ultimately replace all the internal amps (you can switch them off) with power amplifiers from the main hi-fi range. The largest systems could include many power amps that will aid dynamics and drama.

The inherent high performance of both the Master Series components means that even our most compact systems impress because they are built to be more than capable in the very largest installations. The upgrade path ensures that your investment is protected and remains valuable for many years to come. Many of our customers start with small hi-fi systems and once they ‘get the bug’, they keep upgrading over years and sometimes even generations! AV Master 8.0 is a sophisticated, configurable 7.1 channel AV system amplifier. It includes a 7.1 channel preamplifier, up-sampling multi input DAC and 3 channels of user configurable power amplification … all within one of our trademark, half-width, precision die-cast, magnesium alloy chassis. The 3 channels of amplification can be user configured to fit perfectly into whatever system you are running.
