Description
AVM 30.3
The AVM 30.3 series is the entry point into the world of AVM, offering outstanding value for money without compromising on quality. Our 30.3 products are built on over 40 years of continuous development and deliver an impressive balance of performance and affordability. Ideal for anyone looking for the perfect introduction to the world of high-fidelity audio.
Sophisticated design meets cutting-edge technology
The PAS 30.3 preamplifier impresses with its timeless, minimalist design and a solid aluminum case. But behind the elegant facade is the latest technology: completely symmetrical signal paths and a thoughtful circuit guarantee maximum sound fidelity and an impressive dynamic range.
Modernized control with the RC X App
The AVM RC X App offers a completely modernized control with an intuitive and elegant user interface. It allows for easy management of large music collections and promotes the discovery of new music on platforms such as TIDAL, Qobuz or HighResAudio. The app is available for iOS and Android, while basic functions can also be controlled via the included RC 3 full-aluminium remote control.
Exceptional sound quality for every detail
With an amplifier power that reduces distortion to an absolute minimum (<0.0005% THD), the PAS 30.3 ensures exceptionally clear and detailed sound reproduction. Whether you’re enjoying high-resolution music or classic vinyl records, this preamplifier brings out the best from every source. The PAS 30.3 is handmade in Germany and combines the highest precision with high-quality materials. The AVM PAS 30.3 is the result of decades of experience in the development of audiophile technologies. Its fully balanced circuit design minimizes noise and ensures an incomparably clean sound image.
With its numerous connection options – including HDMI ARC, analog inputs, coaxial as well as optical digital input, phono MM/MC input and the typical AVM streaming functions (Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect MAX, QOBUZ, HighResAudio, ROOn Ready, web radio,…) the PAS 30.3 offers enough connection options for all eventualities in the home pre/power amplifier combination.
AVMs X-STREAM Engine®
The AVM X-STREAM Engine® streams all high-resolution formats, including DSD (up to DSD256), and is future-proof with online updates. It features HDMI ARC, Bluetooth 5.0, digital inputs, and a USB-A interface. Highlights include the new phono input stage for MM/MC and volume-controlled digital outputs. The HDMI ARC input also enables seamless TV connection and control. The digital section of the CS 30.3 has been completely redesigned, drawing on AVM’s decades of expertise. A selected next-generation ESS converter (9038 Q2M) ensures superior sound quality and enables perfect, true-to-life reproduction of high-resolution formats. This advanced converter significantly enhances the playback of all digital audio sources.
