@soix the amp is to offer more clean power to get the dynamics and volume needed from my other speakers to match the Khorn.Klipsch tend to be extremely efficient speakers and typically don’t need much power at all. IMO and especially for HT you probably wasted your $ on a separate amp as most any decent AVR has plenty of power for those speakers. Like I said before, just sell your amp and buy a Yamaha RX-A2080 (or even a 1080 would be fine for your speakers and save you even more $) from accessories4less — I’m sure you’ll be thrilled and have $1000+ more cash in your pocket. The Yammy has plenty of clean power for your Klipsch, and since preamps apparently don’t matter spending more on the MRX740 would be a stupid waste of money in your case. Just trying to help here, and best of luck.
New Anthem AVM 70 and MRX 740 difference in processing
I've had my eye on the new Anthem line-up recently. But I'm torn between the AVM70 processor only vs the MRX740 receiver.
The receiver offers pre outs for all the channels I'd need. So I wouldn't really use the amps in the receiver.
BUT, MRX 's resell is going to be much better because it's all-in-one - fewer demand for the AVM, and the AVM is $1000 more.
So, are the internals of the AVM really all that much better? And how much difference would you really notice on multichannel movie playback?
Thoughts on this?
