Like all devices from the AVM 30.3 series, the PA 30.3 also refers to a legendary predecessor, the AVM V2. This preamplifier from the early nineties provided the template for its modern descendant. Other borrowings of the current PA 30.3 also come from the larger preamplifier sister models of the EVOLUTION series. Key features such as the high-end phono section were imported from here. Contemporary features such as the digital inputs along with Bluetooth 4.2 with high resolution, complement the wide range of equipment of the PA 30.3. Likewise, in the circuit design, the modern DA converter structure of the larger AVM preamps were adopted. These innovations are made possible by the use of state-of-the-art components. In sum, this has resulted in a new and ultra-modern preamplifier, which plays sonically at the very highest level and offers the complete panel of the most modern connection options.

All functions of the PA 30.3 are easy and intuitive to operate - at the same time, extensive setting options are available (input sensitivity, tone control, home theater loops and much more). The perfectly crafted housing made of painted sheet steel provides the stable base to safely support the sensitive amplifier electronics and protect the sensitive phono stage from unwanted interference. The brushed aluminum front takes cues from both the current EVOLUTION series units and its ancestor the V2. Standard cabinet versions are silver and black. The solid and shapely RC 3 aluminum remote control is included.

The AVM 30.3 series continues the anniversary series launched in late summer 2016 and limited at the time. Like all audiophile masterpieces from AVM, the PA 30.3 has been completely developed in the noble manufactory in Malsch, Germany, in order to transfer the latest circuitry methods of the award-winning components from the EVOLUTION series adapted to the AVM 30.3 series. Repeated, intensive quality controls during all manufacturing steps and a break-in period of several days for each individual device ensure AVM's promise of maximum reliability in the long term.
