New Anthem AVM 70 and MRX 740 difference in processing

I don’t get it, why are you guys fighting?

Me either and I'm the OP.  He basically threw shade that I would even ask the stupid question in the first place and said something about my crappy system.  I guess that's up for debate but, the question was never really answered.  What makes the AVM $1000 better than the MRX?  Especially when most movies are bloated soundtracks never meant to sound natural, flat, or whatever.  Why spend more on the dacs when the original signal is known to be over-processed in the first place?  Or am I totally wrong?  I'm not sure, which is why I posted.  I didn't want to argue but I also won't be bullied by a fool.

Man, you really are dense.  And simply holding someone accountable for their own words isn’t bullying.  It’s not the question you asked, it was the unfounded, ignorant statements and accusations accompanying your question (that I highlighted above so won’t re-copy that crap here) that I didn’t let pass, and you don’t like being held responsible for your silly statements so you keep pushing it. If you just asked the question without the additional stupidity there wouldn’t be any problem, but if you say something stupid here you best be ready to be called out on it. Or just don’t make any more ignorant, unsupported accusations or assertions, if that’s at all possible for you.

Omg dude go away!  You have done zero to answer the question.  And yes I have some ignorance here, that's why I asked the question in the first place.  But unsupported accusations and assertions?  You literally said this "hodgepodge little system" not having any idea what I own.  You're trying to system shame people now?  

Still haven't got a good answer from you.  I assume you don't know?  Have you ever even owned an anthem product?

@ dmk_hifi I agree I think the original question is still relevant. My understanding is the AVM will use higher quality internals, most importantly the internal DACs will be much better.  

Now, given that, how much importance should be put on this for height, back, and surround speakers.  For 2 channel - absolutely!   But not sure how much this matters in the real world for other channels.

Some people here think the more you spend the better a product is and you're an idiot for thinking otherwise.

Once again because you continue to not get the point.  It’s got nothing to do with the question you asked. You made uninformed, unsubstantiated, conspiracy theory-like assertions that I didn’t let slide because they’re completely bogus and may wrongfully influence people who may not know better than to dismiss them as the useless and paranoid hogwash that they are.

I said my front speakers are Khorns, the in-ceiling/rear are Episode and Klipsch RP600m (surround) which are MUCH less efficient than the front two.

By your own words, your system is a hodgepodge of disparate speakers. You’re just a victim of your own words here and just refuse to take responsibility for them.

some manufacturers (I believe) use the same internals in their receivers as they do their processors. I don’t know but I would bet that many processors are just the company’s receiver without the amps

Completely unfounded conspiracy BS.

it appears most people cannot tell a difference in the processing quality between the older MRX720 and AVM60.

More completely unfounded BS.

I’ll bet I could go into an HT enthusiasts theater and swap out his $5000 whatever processor for a Marantz receiver with similar outputs and he’d never know the difference.

Just pure ignorance.

Yet again, the problem has nothing to do with your initial valid question but rather the absolute crap you’ve been spewing along with it. I’m simply just calling you out on your own words and you don’t like it. Too bad. Just stop spewing it. You’re not getting the answer here so get off your ass and call Anthem who I’m sure will be more than happy to disabuse you of your paranoid beliefs that they use their cheaper receiver parts in their prepros.
