Experience every sight, every sound, as the MRX immerses you with stunning picture up to 8K/60Hz (4K/120Hz), and the latest generation audio formats in up to 17-channels (15.2) MRX Receivers define stateof-the-art gaming performance. Advanced processing precisely positions every sound with breathtaking realism and clarity

 

 

Flexible Streaming

MRX Receivers include a robust set of streaming options that can pull your music in from local storage or from the internet. Thanks to Anthem’s high-speed processing and premium digital-to-analog conversion using high-end DACs, sound quality can be every bit as good as dropping a CD into a dedicated disc player. In some cases, high resolution streams can sound even better than CDs, approaching the quality of SACD, DVD-A, and Blu-ray audio.

 

 

Channel Re-Assignment

The built in high performance amplifier modules can be configured in many ways to suit the specific speaker configuration. Unused amplifier channels can be re-assigned to Bi-Amplify demanding front speakers, power surrounds, presence speakers, or a second zone (Available on MRX 1140 and MRX 740).

Configure amplifier channels for your system's needs, then fully optimise the presentation with ARC Genesis.

 

 

Anthem Remote App

The Anthem Remote App uses a Wifi connection to simplify the configuration of supported Anthem devices. App-based controls include volume level, muting, input selection, power, listening modes, bass, treble, level trims, menu navigation, and Anthem Room Correction (ARC) control.
