I had an AVM-20 and D-1 to compare, so it is almost the same. The D-1 has superior DAC/s built in, so there is no need for an outboard DAC. I was using a Musical Fidelity A 324 DAC fed through the direct outputs with the AVM-20, and the By taking out (and selling the MF A 324) I feel that my source CD player sounds better going right into the D-1. Plus you get the added benefit of the D-1 bass management. And the superior DACs are there in not just the front channels, but all around in the D-1, so surround music and movie soundtrack are superior (in my system at least)
Anthem AVM30 vs's Statement D1
Looking for feedback from people that have done direct comparisons with these two units.My question is the upgrade worth the cost difference when you already have the AVM30.Looking for feedback for both 2 channel and 5.1 performance.Both are equally important to me.
