AVM, the renowned German high-end audio manufacturer, is celebrating 40 years of amplifier expertise at HIGH END Vienna 2026. The brand invites visitors to experience its latest creations in Room 2.44, where it is exhibiting together with Canton.
Ovation S Series: State-of-the-Art Performance
AVM is unveiling significant expansions to its flagship Ovation S Series, now positioned as the brand’s “Best-of-the-Best” lineup. These new models reflect four decades of relentless development in both advanced technology and meticulous sonic tuning.
Making their world debut are two new power amplifiers:
- SA 8.3 S Stereo Power Amplifier
- MA 8.3 S Mono Power Amplifier
Both models feature an all-new tube stage design that brings a dramatically more emotional and involving dimension to music reproduction.
The Ovation S Series is further strengthened by:
- CS 8.3 S All-in-One Player (with CD drive)
- AS 8.3 S Integrated Amplifier
- PAS 8.3 S Preamplifier
- MP 8.3 S Media Player
Note: The previous SD/MP 6.3/8.3, A 6.3/8.3, and A 6.2 ME models are now discontinued and sold out.
AS XL: The Ultimate Statement Integrated Amplifier
One of the biggest highlights at the show is the all-new AS XL — a massive Class A/AB integrated amplifier with streaming capabilities. Delivering over 400W per channel, the AS XL is a true high-end statement piece. The name “XL” refers not only to its impressive physical size but also to the Roman numeral for 40, perfectly marking AVM’s 40th anniversary.
Based on the new Ovation S Series stereo power amplifier topology, the AS XL combines immense power with refined musicality and modern streaming functionality. It will make its official debut in Vienna, with orders now being accepted and production commencing immediately after the show.
40 Years of German Engineering Excellence
With 40 years of experience in amplifier design, AVM continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in high-end audio. The new Ovation S Series and the mighty AS XL perfectly embody the brand’s philosophy: uncompromising performance, emotional musicality, and exceptional build quality.
Visitors to HIGH END Vienna 2026 are warmly invited to experience these new models live in Room 2.44.
