I just did a quick search on the new AVM 90 and see they're using the AKM DAC chip.

" The AVM 90 is our new flagship A/V Processor with upgraded audio circuitry, 4 independent subwoofer outputs and a 32-bit AKM AK4499EQ DAC with 768kHz sampling capability. It represents Anthem’s ultimate expression of audio performance."

With the recent fire at the AKM manufacturing plant in Japan, I'll bet whatever inventory Anthem have for their new series using AKM chips will be sold out in no time (same with other manufactures using AKM).
