AVM PC 3.3 Power Conditioner

For the audiophile who believes pure power is the cornerstone of great sound, but requires a more elegant solution, AVM presents the OVATION PC 3.3 Power Conditioner. This is not a stripped-down device; it is a full-blooded MASTERPIECE component, delivering the same uncompromising German engineering and reference-level filtration as its larger siblings, all within a more streamlined chassis. The PC 3.3 acts as a dedicated purifier for your mains supply, systematically eliminating the transformer hum and high-frequency hash that choke the life out of your music. It is the essential upgrade that provides a silent, stable foundation for 8 components, allowing your system to finally perform with the clarity and dynamism you knew it always had.

Key Features

• 8 Purified Outputs: Features 6 dedicated high-current outputs for demanding power amplifiers and 2 individually filtered source-level outputs for your sensitive components.
• Total Component Isolation: Employs individual HF filtering with common mode chokes for every single outlet, completely preventing crosstalk and noise pollution between your connected devices.
• Advanced DC Filtration: A powerful DC filter at the input eradicates mains-borne DC offset, effectively eliminating the mechanical transformer hum from your amplifiers.
• Live Power Quality Analysis: A brilliant graphical OLED display provides a continuous, real-time report on mains voltage, frequency, DC offset, and incoming HF interference.
• Fortress-Grade Protection Suite: A comprehensive safety system defends your entire system against surges (up to 6000 A), overcurrent faults, and incorrect wiring.
• Instant A/B Sound Comparison: Onboard demo buttons for both DC and HF filters let you momentarily bypass the conditioning for a direct, audible comparison of the improvement.
• Guaranteed Correct Polarity: Active phase detection verifies that protective earth and mains phase are correct before activating, ensuring maximum safety and performance.
• Intelligent System Startup: Activates the output banks sequentially to manage inrush currents, protecting both your components and your home’s circuitry.
• User-Resettable Fault Protection: Features a conveniently located, resettable RCD (Residual Current Device) for overcurrent and fault protection.
• Seamless System Integration: Can be powered on and off via AVM RC3 or RC 5 remote controls for unified system operation.
• The "Acoustiliser": A unique feature that provides an optional acoustic signal of the conditioner's activity for monitoring purposes.

The Silent Foundation

Every great performance begins with silence. The PC 3.3 creates this silence by attacking power-grid pollution with a vengeance. It first targets and eliminates any DC voltage on the line, the primary cause of the distracting mechanical hum that can emanate from your amplifier’s transformer. Then, its advanced design gives each connected component its own dedicated high-frequency (HF) filter. This critical isolation prevents the noisy digital circuits of a streamer from polluting the delicate analog signal of a phono stage, ensuring every piece of your system receives immaculately clean power.

Power, Made Visible

The AVM PC 3.3 does its remarkable work in plain sight, empowering you with a clear, real-time understanding of your system's electrical foundation. The sharp front-panel OLED display is more than just a status light; it's a full diagnostic report. You can instantly see your incoming mains voltage and frequency for stability, while intuitive bar graphs show you the exact level of incoming interference and, more importantly, visibly confirm that the PC 3.3 is scrubbing it clean. This feedback provides the ultimate confidence that your system is performing on a bedrock of pure, stable power.

An Uncompromising Shield

Your audio system is an investment in your passion, and the PC 3.3 protects it with an uncompromising, multi-layered defense. Before a single volt is delivered, an active phase detection circuit ensures your mains connection is correctly wired for safety and performance. From there, it stands vigilant guard with a formidable surge protector to defend against catastrophic spikes, while a user-resettable RCD and overcurrent protection shield your gear from electrical faults. With the PC 3.3 at the heart of your system, you can simply relax and get lost in the music, knowing your components are completely secure.

Compact Form, Pure Performance

The PC 3.3 masterfully packs AVM’s reference-level power conditioning technology into an elegant, space-conscious chassis. It proves that a smaller footprint does not require compromise, delivering the same sophisticated filtering, live analytics, and fortress-grade protection found in its larger counterparts. It is the perfect power hub for high-end systems in listening rooms where every inch matters. From its intelligent, sequential startup to the satisfying click of its relays, every aspect of the PC 3.3 is a testament to meticulous German engineering designed for one purpose: to let you hear more of your music.
