Beneath the A-5VL's slim and elegant exterior lies a surprising amount of amplification muscle. You might wonder how Onkyo managed to incorporate the functionality of a pre- and power amp into such a slender integrated package. The key is the A-5VL's extremely energy-efficient design.

Because it produces much less heat than a typical amplifier, the A-5VL requires only a small heat sink. This leaves ample space for a range of precision-crafted audiophile-grade parts, such as specially audio-tuned capacitors and thick, low-impedance copper bus plates.

The A-5VL employs Onkyo's exclusive Vector Linear (VL) Digital technology to ensure a smooth, pulse noise-free signal during conversion from digital to analogue. You'll enjoy precise and faithful reproduction of any audio source, whether it's a CD, a tuner, or a turntable.

As the A-5VL is also compatible with Onkyo's optional RI (remote interactive) Docks for the iPod, you also have the convenience of controlling playback of your iPod via the amplifier's remote controller.
