Designed for first-time reference-class users, our easily configurable multichannel A/V preamplifier delivers brilliant home cinema in every conceivable situation.

Music lovers with sensitive ears are only too aware of the potential hazards for sound waves in unfavourably shaped rooms. This problem is even more critical In home-cinema applications – a shot fired on the screen reaches the ear, distorted, a split-second later. That was why we decided to build a multichannel AV preamplifier providing the ideal response to the acoustics of any room. Other systems expect you to put up with imprecise adjustments or confusing automatic systems, whereas the MAP I boasts a professional loudspeaker, delay, bass and equalization management enabling minute adjustments. With our free CARMA software, you can conveniently test the MAP I on your PC or Mac to produce a preview showing how your living-room will be miraculously transformed into a movie theatre. In terms of its technology, configuration and audio-visual quality, the trade press sees its older brother, the MAP V2, as the only rival to the MAP I. So regardless of which system you choose, Audionet is the right choice.

MAP I processes all digital home-cinema and surround-sound formats, including Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS 96/24, and even – over the Audionet HighBit interface – SACD and DVD audio. Optimum playback of up to 7.1 channels is therefore possible.

MAP I is our universal decoder system for high-quality music and home-cinema applications. The slim 70mm A/V preamplifier allows the playback of 2 to 8 channels, offers unique setting and adjustment possibilities, possesses state-of-the-art interface technology and is architecturally prepared for future demands via software and hardware updates.

Like every Audionet machine, the MAP I guarantees a unique sound performance thanks to its own uncompromising combination of audiophile quality and state-of-the-art home-cinema technology. You can look forward to a maximum of natural music rendition, the finest spatial resolution of the soundscape, and outstanding visual reproduction.
