I am sure they will continue with the rock solid reliable and performing gear.

Saw these and read the reviews.  It sounds like they've made some nice improvements but I'm waiting for the AVM60 to go on sale when these come out.  
No str preamp I guess? I have the mrx 720 and was looking at the str for a while. I was waiting for the upgrade cycle because I wanted 10% or so higher performance from the str and possibly hdmi connections. If the AVM 90 (or 70) is equivalent in audio quality to the str, that would be good. I would eliminate a box.. 

I'll wait for some reviews and feedback from others.
I've owned an Anthem AVM60 for a few years and for power amp an Emotiva XPA 7 channel. Prior to this I had a top of the line Integra home theater receiver and there was a pretty huge difference in sound quality when going to seperates. I would be curious what differences there are under the hood between the new AVM 70 and AVM 90
