The AMD P series of power amplifiers from Australian Monitor 
represent a quantum leap forward in connectivity, controllability & 
flexibility in the constant voltage amplifier market. The AMD series 
allows a contractor to integrate the power amplifier to a third  
party control system for remote audio control or simply use the  
AMD amplifiers as standard power amplifiers. 

Australian Monitor AMD  P  series is the future of constant  
voltage amplification.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, 

within an equilateral triangle, is intended  

to alert the user to the presence of 

uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within  

the product’s enclosure that may be of 

sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk  

of electric shock to persons.

WARNING:

 TO REDUCE THE RISK  

OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT  

REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). 

NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. 

REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
