I am confused whether the anthem D2 is out of date and is 'old' technology, or is it an amazing piece of equipment. The reviews that I see seem to be at both ends of the spectrum....any comments would be appreciated
The D2 is a solid pre/pro and one that is easy and reasonable to upgrade through Anthem. The latest D2v does all the new codecs and has dual active HDMI outputs with 8:2 HDMI switching.
You fling around labels but the truth is more subtle. If you want to know if the original D2 or the D2v is suitable for you, you have to ask more specifically.
Kal, I have a sony blu ray disc player S300 and a Samsung 60 inch LED 66 (?) inch TV and Charter cable.....My speakers are all Paradigm, top of line including Servo 15.. I am 5.1 channel....I can pick up D2 with Arc for around 4200 vs. picking up D2v2 for, what, 7000-7500 ?....(I hear the upgrade costs 2000-2500)..I am wondering if the D2 w/o upgrade will be a disappointment because HDMI is outdated (maybe?)
