Upgrade your TV audio without clutter or complexity.
The Russound AVA2.1 2.1-Channel Low-Profile Mini-AVR is a powerful, space-saving solution designed for homeowners who want big sound without bulky gear. Whether you're powering in-ceiling speakers in a kitchen, bookshelf speakers in a den, or a soundbar in your living room, this sleek, compact amp delivers exceptional clarity and control.
Thanks to HDMI ARC with CEC, the AVA2.1 can be controlled directly with your TV or cable box remote — no extra remotes needed. Plus, its Bluetooth 5.0 capability lets you stream music from your phone, tablet, or computer instantly, without additional hardware.
The AVA2.1 acts as a mini home theater receiver, with up to four input options (HDMI ARC, Optical, RCA Line-In, Bluetooth). It’s an ideal choice for discrete AV installs, where performance matters but visibility doesn't. Install it behind a TV, in a wall box, or tucked inside a media cabinet.
