Review
Great value for money. I like that i can choose a number of different speaker layouts, up to the 11.1-channel limitation of the internal processing. The unit supports the usual Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced and comes with Anthem’s proprietary audio calibration system called ARC, with the most recent version of it available here named ARC Genesis. Smoother than most, and gloriously detailed, this only lacks the last ounce of treble extension and air, but the music comes out intact, which is often not the case with high-end usb cables. The front display is a full LCD screen and not the usual dot matrix displays that we are used to see in many AV receivers even today. This virtual tech obviously is not as good and accurate as having real physical speakers and are very much room dependent. The included remote is the same as the previous generation, but that's not a bad thing because it's comfortable to hold and easy to use with one hand.
