@carlsbad2 i've owned the 740 for about a year now, and tbh once the honeymoon period was over i miss the old pioneer elite it replaced--the anthem has alot of power and sounds more audiophile-accurate and less digitally tweaked than the mass market stuff, but also sounds flatter and less dynamic than the mass market stuff, esp. with movies. if i had to do it all over, i would have gotten a used higher-end marantz or yamaha avr.
Anthem MRX 740 8K as an upgrade to my Denon AVR-X3700H
I have a 7.2 system. I drive my front speakers using pre-out to my 2 channel system amp that drives my 2 channel system speakers. I have 2 more sets of floorstanders for side and rear. 2 self powered subs. Pretty happy with the system.
Thinking of the upgrade in the subject. I'm much more well versed in 2 channel sound than AV systems and would appreciate comments.
I like the same things in theatre however, clear, accurate, and powerful, and dynamic.
For a streamer, are there better options than my LG smart TV delivered to my HT receiver via ARC? I don't see any discussion of HT specific streamers/decoders.
