@mikelavigne If you don't mind me asking how much did the Trinnov cost ?
Emotiva or Anthem or Something Else?
Hi,
Does anyone have any experience comparing Emotiva to Anthem?
I am about to buy a new system for the livingroom that we are building over here. This system in this space will be tasked with driving a 5.2.4 home theater system for TV and Movies but it will also need to provide excellent sound quality for listening to music. The sound quality for the music is a top priority. The source material for this system will be Netflicks and Apple TV for the video content and Amazon HD Music for the Music.
I am considering either the Emotiva RMC-1L processor and XPA9 Gen3 Amp combo or the Anthem MRX 1140 8K. The Emotiva combo is a bit more expensive and would also require a network streamer for Amazon HD Music which will be a bit more $$.
What is considered to have the better sound quality between these two options?
Is there something else that I should be looking at?

when i purchased mine the list price was $16,995. right now i think it’s $18,500 list price. likely your dealer would work with you some on the price, you can’t buy it on line from a big box store. the support is phenomenal. once you install the Trinnov in your system and connect it to your network it’s automatically connected to the Tinnov service network and they will assist you in the set-up and trouble shoot any issues on line. here is a used one listed for sale.... if you want to know anything about Trinnov here is a thread on AVS where you can get any question answered. https://www.avsforum.com/threads/trinnov-altitude.1516103/page-1123#post-62244596 here are some pictures of my Home Theater room from 2 years ago when my -3- Funk Audio 18.0 subs arrived.... https://www.avsforum.com/threads/official-funk-audio-thread.1682418/page-95#post-60708790 i’m mainly a 2 channel guy.....you can see my 2 channel system on my detail link with my name.....and that will show you how serious i am about great sound. the Trinnov delivers.....GREAT SOUND.

Latest thought after doing more reading reviews... Option 1 - NAD is out. I just dont see their feature set being comparable and I'm not seeing any reviews of anyone saying that the products I'm considering are all that amazing. Option 2 - Yamaha 20280 receiver is the front runner. I'd like to find a better deal on the integrated amp though. Also, as much as I've seen good reviews I have yet to see one that says its amazing. Option 3 - Marantz Still in the running but not by much. I really want an A/B amp and the Marantz is class D Option 4 - Emotiva - Out Option 5 - Onkyo is out. I think I can find the Yamaha 2080 for equal to or less than the Onkyo and the Yamaha is better Option X - Now considering a Rotel RB-1592 MKII as the integrated amp. I saw a review on Youtube by a guy who reviews a ton of stuff and he really liked it. He thought that it was as good as the Yamaha A-S3200... while being the same price as the 2200. |
