Overview and specifications 

The predecessor of the MAP V2 already caused a sensation and is one of the very rare home cinema preamplifiers at all that is capabale of combining highest tonal quality with complex home cinema technologies.
The MAP V2 follows this tradition and furthermore offers a unique functional range, that meets even highest requirements.

MAP V2 processes all home cinema and surround sound formats (including Dolby ProLogic IIx) with up to 7.1 channels. Loudspeaker- and bass management are freely adjustable. MAP V2 can be optimally set up for each loudspeaker ensemble. It offers a powerful parametric equalizer to eliminate disturbing room influences.

A highbit interface enables digital reception of high-resolution two- or multi-channel sound (DVD-Audio) with up to 192 kHz/24 bits, making it possible for the first time ever to use the individual loudspeaker-, bass- and equalizer settings for these high-quality formats.

Nevertheless, MAP V2 is still an audiophile analog preamplifier in best Audionet tradition, offering highest performance for classic stereo music reproduction. With its unique features MAP V2 sets a new standard for high-quality home cinema and multichannel preamplifers.
