Design & engineering

Inside the AV 20.

Thirteen processed channels

The processor supports flexible immersive layouts, with four subwoofer channels for a more extensive bass system.

Independent power amplification

Use its preamplifier outputs with suitable external amplifiers. AV 20 does not power passive speakers directly.

Room-specific setup

Connectivity and calibration tools let the system be configured around the room, sources and loudspeaker arrangement.

The matching amplifier

AMP 20 is the twelve-channel partner in the same design family. Additional amplifier channels depend on the chosen layout.

Powered by HEOS

Find your music.
Connect your rooms.

Use the HEOS app for supported music services and compatible network music. Group compatible HEOS devices for multiroom playback, or choose a different source in each room where the system supports it.

Service availability depends on region and account. Subscriptions, compatible devices and current firmware may be required. The specifications below identify this model’s supported formats and connections.
