1 Preface

The Audionet Team congratulates you to your purchase of this unit.

AMP V is Audionet's latest 5-channel power amplifier. For everyone,
who needs more power, but is not willing to provide the space for gian­tific amplifiers occupying cubicmeters of your listening room. AMP V is
our power amplifier for multi-channel setups, and in conjunction with our
high-class home theater pre amplifier MAP 1, it is more space-saveing as
many of the surround receiver flagships. And even better: In no way more
expensive!

AMP V accomplishes the feat to combine outstanding performance and
matchless sound character with utmost compactly dimensions. Its five
channels render recent 5.1 home cinemas possible. With these features,
the AMP V is predestined for home theater solutions in particular suitable
for your living space and primarily convincing in sound.

Wether it is Mozart or King Kong, AMP V masters all its tasks with
dedication and captivates its audience with an authenticity rarely to be
experienced. Its sound is fast, vigorous and thoroughly honest, but simul­taneously full of concinnity, grace and accuracy. Paired with its conta­gious delight of performance, an amazingly realistic sound experience
arises.

AMP V represents the lastest state of Audionet's award-winning amplifier
technology and audiophile passion: Engineered and produced in Berlin,
Germany.

Like in all our mono and stereo power amplifiers, we consequently real­ized Audionet's ultra linear amplifier concept in the AMP V, too. The
circuitry is designed to achieve exemplary low distortion, celerity and
stability. The internal structure of the AMP V was developed in a way
that all five channels work independently as far as possible. Only exclu­sively selected high-grade components are used. Influences harmful to
the sound quality of the amplifier have been completely eliminated, and
an exemplary stability of performance is granted.

AMP V is controlled and monitored by a capable microprocessor. It pro­vides an easy handling, comforting reliability and even checks the correct
polarization of the mains plug. Of course, the AMP V can be remotely
controlled by the Audionet Link interface.

But before you start listening to your new Audionet AMP V, please read
this manual carefully so you are able to use and enjoy all functions of this
unit without drawback on music quality.
